Over 35 new Interpretation Panels are being installed along Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways over the next couple of weeks.
Work began on Monday at a very damp Pont Croesor and has already moved on to Tan y Bwlch, Waunfawr and Rhydd Ddu. Some panels will keep the strapping in place temporarily in order to allow the glue to dry.
The panels are mounted on posts made of old rails that have been manufactured by volunteers.
The panels tell stories about the people and history of both railways across the centuries, and hopefully will encourage our visitors to want to learn more and even join the railway community.
Mae dros 35 o Baneli Dehongli newydd yn cael eu gosod ar hyd Rheilffyrdd Ffestiniog ac Eryri dros yr wythnosau nesaf.
Dechreuodd y gwaith ar Ddydd Llun gwlyb iawn ym Mhont Croesor ac mae eisoes wedi symud ymlaen i Dan y Bwlch, Waunfawr a Rhydd Ddu. Bydd rhai paneli yn cadw’r strapio yn ei le dros dro er mwyn caniatau i’r glud sychu.
Mae’r paneli wedi’u gosod ar byst wedi’u gwneud o hen reiliau sydd wedi’u cynhyrchu gan wirfoddolwyr.
Mae’r paneli’n adrodd straeon am bobl a hanes y ddwy reilffordd ar hyd y canrifoedd, a gobeithio y byddant yn annog ein hymwelwyr i fod eisiau dysgu mwy a hyd yn oed ymuno â chymuned y rheilffyrdd.
