Last day of the Blaenau Fesiniog to Bala branch special

My research confirms that passenger services between Bala and Blaenau Festiniog ended in January 1960 , although freight workings carried on for a further year until 27th . January 1961 , with the nuclear power station construction here at Trawsfynydd which had begun in July of 1959 , and subsequent use in service until 1991, having brought about an increase in freight traffic on this remote line in its late years.
This special working a few days before the end of freight workings looks to be running on a typical wet January conditions
