On the return Welsh Highland Railway journey from Caernarfon to Porthmadog Harbour, on the afternoon of 22nd May 2016, another lengthy wait ensued at Rhyd-Ddu station for a Caernarfon train to arrive, clearing the single line. Ex-South African Railways NSGG class 16 2-6-2+2-6-2 No.138 eventually arrived at Rhyd-Ddu and in common with stations on the sister Ffestiniog Railway, is crossing on the right. The weather had improved considerably by this time to when I set off from Porthmadog in the morning.
