This is much faster than when I rode in 2011. Seriously, I enjoyed the quick trip. The entire one way to Caenarfon(sp) is about twenty five miles. This seems about half way. |

Fun video! From a section foreman's point of view, I'm very impressed with that track. Nice and smooth, good surface and line, and lots of ballast, many class 1 branch line railroads don't look that good. |
