Singed up for the extra camera etc- no problem. I would willingly pay for extra cameras etc just to keep an eye on things until a visit is possible.

It was fine

It was fine. Reasonably easy to follow once I got the hang of it. Took me a while but I am partially sighted so everything takes longer these days. Hope the railway keeps going so we might be a able to travel again this year.

My partner and I miss dearly coming to Wales to the Tallylyhn railway.We never go anywhere else on holiday and my partner is also a volunteer and he has been for many years.
It is a precious treasure , preserved & cared for with love , knowledge and respect for a hardworking inspiring nostalgic past.
The shop manages to cope well on line with incredibly prompt responses in a very difficult time for all.

Order despatched efficiently despite coronavirus and Lockdown.

Due to these circumstances I asked for notification item was on its way, and email was duly received.

When purchase arrived (calendar), it was of good quality, and I'll probably repeat purchase in future years.

Thanks to sales department all round.

Regards to railway!
