Date

Princess shunting at Duffws Station, 5 September 1906. The locomotive, turned to face downhill, is drawing loaded slates from the Rhiwbach sidings. In the platform road is the back portion of the quarrymen's train. This might form the midweek working (the full train only running Monday and Saturday). It comprises a mk3 quarrymen's carriage, Ashbury No. 22, and Curly Roofed Van No. 1.

To the left of Princess can be seen a 1-ton general purpose waggons (loaded with coal) with wooden 2-ton & 4-ton coal waggons, and gunpowder vans in the distance destined for the quarries. Votty & Bowydd incline in background. Note the luggage cart on the station platform.
