Description
Talyllyn Railway ex RAF Andrew Barclay 0-4-0T No. 6 Douglas approaches a bridge with tight clearances near Tywyn, Wales. The Rev. W. Awdry volunteered for the Talyllyn early in the preservation era and based the Skarloey Railway on it when writing the Railway Series, so Duncan's clearance problems may have been based on some that Douglas experienced.
