We are sad to report that on Sunday 6th April the Talyllyn Railway’s historic locomotive No.1 ‘Talyllyn’ suffered a mechanical failure which resulted in significant damage to its running gear.
After an initial assessment it has been confirmed that the locomotive will be out of service for several months while the affected parts of the motion are repaired.
However, the intention is to put a plan in place for the locomotive to return to service as soon as possible.
