Geocache Description:

The cache is a nano placed near the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway (WHHR) station. 

This cache is part of the SideTracked series. These are Cache and Dashes for public transport users, which can be found at or near train stations, ex-train stations or near miniature or narrow gauge railways such as this.


The original Welsh Highland Railway was a 1 ft 11 ½ in narrow gauge railway that operated for just 15 years from 1922 to 1936. The Welsh Highland Heritage Railway (WHHR) started in 1980s and runs trains for 1 mile to Pen-y-Mount junction with the WHR. On the return journey the train stops at the engine sheds where diesel and electric engines can be seen and a ride on the 7-inch narrow gauge railway may be taken.

The WHHR operates a webcam where views of the railway and Snowdonia can be seen and the current weather conditions found out.
