About this ebook
Two different companies built the long-lost railway that once ran between Rhyl and Corwen through the rich farm lands of the Vale of Clwyd. Later in the 1950s, it became part of the route of hugely popular scenic rail cruises run for the benefit of holiday makers in the north coast resorts. This nostalgic photographic journey along its tracks will bring back many memories of the line and the trains which once ran on it.
