Title

Gravity Train passing through Dduallt.

Gravity slate train passing through Dduallt Station, 1920. The rear of the train seems to be just in view to the left of the station building, making it around fifty waggons in total, which is supported by the presence of only the two brakesman. The site of the rumoured passing loop is in front of the photographer, but the photographic records suggest it was only ever a siding. Note how the first waggon has the ratchet brake firmly applied.
