Dduallt Spiral

UK Railtours' charter from Blaenau Ffestiniog to Caernarfon, doubled-headed by 'Linda' and 'Blanche' as far as Porthmadog, entering the top of the Dduallt Spiral on 6th April 2019. Unique in the UK, the spiral was built to enable the revived line to gain height avoiding the section flooded after closure. The train will descend through 360 degrees to rejoin the original 1836 route.

Location: Dduallt Spiral
