Blaenau

The southern portal of the 2 mile 333 yards Ffestiniog Tunnel in March 2015. The contrast between the rural area around the northern portal at Roman Bridge and the moonscape found when emerging here is always amazing and the train continues through the slate heaps for almost a mile to the present day station. One of Blaenau's numerous old inclined planes can be seen top left.
