The early days on The Talyllyn Railway

 


Caption reads "The two Fletcher & Jennings locomotives delivered to the Talyllyn Railway".

First Talyllyn in 1865 and then Dolgoch one year later were delivered without cabs, no doubt the cabs were quickly added for relative shelter from the Welsh winter weather!
