Wales - Great Little Trains

It is still quite an adventure to take a ride on one of these colorful "great little trains of Wales", with their ancient locomotives and carriages, which chug across the countryside at full steam, even today. A nostalgic relic of the slate-mining age, when they were used for transporting slate from the mines, these 10 narrow-gauge railroads now carry millions of visitors every year through some of the most scenically impressive parts of Wales.
