Collection overview (Cornucopia)
The history and development of narrow gauge railways in Great Britain is represented by a wide variety of exhibits ranging from locomotives and wagons to documents and tickets. Over seventy individual railways are represented. A major section is devoted to Welsh slate railways and particularly the Talyllyn Railway. Rev W W Awdry, famous for his “Railway Series” children’s books, several of which are based on the Talyllyn Railway, is remembered with a reconstruction of his study.
