This week I'd love to share with you the photos I took on a visit to the railway that runs alongside Lake Bala in Wales, where I recently went on a research trip.
The main station is at Llanuwchllyn, which is where these pictures were taken. |  |

Who remembers these? I'd forgotten cigarette machines existed.
Incidentally, those "cigarette packets" are actually just pictures. |  |
 | Another important machine for the raolway station - the one dispensing platform tickets.
Do you remember Harry in book 3 of the Railway Girls books, The Railway Girls in Love, buying platform tickets for all the wedding guests? |
| Gorgeous use of an old telephone box. |  |
 | Don't forget the dog's ticket! |
I'd never been inside a signal box before. It was easy to imagine Bob working here.
That's a small water-tower on the right next to the coal wagons. A larger water-tower plays an important part in book 8, Christmas Wishes for the Railway Girls.
