Dear Friends,
This past weekend has been something rather special indeed. From all of us at the Talyllyn Railway we cannot thank you enough for coming to the Awdry Extravaganza 2025 - so many have travelled so very far to visit our little railway and we are so very grateful.

Happy 80th to The Railway Series.
Whilst not ready for today, I can safely say I've never been more nervous making a video before. However, it is being made with the generous assistance of some wonderful people, and I couldn't be more grateful.
Watch this space, it's going to be quite special :)
