0902 The Tal y Llyn Railway

04:40pm - 04:55pm Monday, 23rd February 1970

  In Britain today, most trains are electric or diesel, but there are still a few steam trains running and today's story is about a railway in Wales where you can still ride on one. Other stories this week tell of rocket trains, engines that tried to fly and underground trains that drive themselves. And on Friday there's an adventure story which all happens on the night express to Scotland.
