Area Groups

The Ffestiniog Railway Society is supported by a number of members’ groups which are based on either a geographic area or which are focused on a particular aspect of the Ffestiniog Railway. 

Their purpose is to support the Ffestiniog Railway Society in one or more of the following ways:

  • by raising funds to support the Ffestiniog Railway;

  • increase the knowledge of members and others of the Ffestiniog Railway;

  • encourage members and others to actively participate (volunteer) in the operation, conservation and development of the Ffestiniog Railway.

For further information please send an email or write to the appropriate group Secretary, c/o Ffestiniog Railway Society, Harbour Station, PORTHMADOG, Gwynedd, LL49 9NF.
