Snowdon Mountain Railway

Midway, we stop for the train to take on water.

For steam-hauled trains, the Llanberis shunt movement includes a trip to the water crane and coaling stage outside the locomotive shed. At Halfway Station steam locomotives also take water from a water crane, fed from a large tank located just above the station. For emergency use another large water tank is situated near Clogwyn Station which can feed two water cranes. It also stops at Halfway station to drop off supplies for the cafe. 82060807
