Summary edit

Description
English: Looking up the Bryngwyn incline, near Glandwr
The Bryngwyn [narrow gauge railway] branch was built to carry slate from the quarries to the coast. The line opened in 1877 and closed in 1937. This section was a double incline, rising 80 metres in half a mile. Only three full slate wagons could be lowered at a time. It is now part of the Cangen Bryngwyn Branch slate railway trail. You can follow the route of the railway from Tryfan Junction, through Rhostryfan and Bryngwyn to the site of the drumhead at the top of the incline. The trail was created by Cyngor Cymuned Llanwnda / Llanwnda Community Council.
