OK this isn't expressly related to any quarry, but I wonder if anyone has seen a corner of a plan that that involves the early version of Duffws, please?

I know that in Griff Jones' book on Rhiwbach there is a redrawing of the Festiniog and Machno plan of 1853, but there isn't a huge amount of detail.

I now know what the original station building looked like but no idea of the track layout, apart from Boyd. Any pointers gratefully received: as some of you may have guessed it's part of the rolling research into FR signalling.

Indeed; but I don't wish to trespass on his generosity too much: he has been more than kind in supplying stuff for the other branch. 😉

I'll come back on this - but I don't think I have anything, I'm afraid - too far away from the quarries concerned to appear on their plans etc.

The map is the territory - especially in chain scale.

Thank-you Graham. As I've travelled down this path I am beginning to despair of the compound errors with successive editions of a certain author.
