Notes :
(1) Route & loco confirmation required. This was the last year the TRPS AGM
special ran. The TRPS train was booked to run from London Euston via Crewe to
Minffordd (and probably on to Pwllheli) and it is understood the trains were
booked to meet at Crewe. This allowed passengers not attending the AGM to travel
on the Ffestiniog and Talyllyn Railways (in either direction i.e. visiting
either the TR or FR first). In the event it is understood the TRPS train did not
run as planned, but became a connecting DMU from Machynlleth -
passengers from London using reserved accommodation in service trains.
