View of freshly laid track by Pont Croesor; this was the result of the working week in April 2008, of which I am very pleased to have been a part. The 'Head of Steel', as it was known, has just reached the bridge over Afon Glaslyn and the next day the bridge would see its first train in about seventy years!
