Conwy Valley Railway Museum

The Conwy Valley Railway Museum is located at Betws-y-Coed railway station, Betws-y-Coed, North Wales, on the site of the old railway goods yard.

Museum
The museum was founded in the early 1970s by Alan Pratt, starting with a former standard gauge railway carriage which today acts as a licensed Buffet & Restaurant car. The current museum was built later, and contains various railway artefacts, including a gauge quarter scale (1:4) replica of a Britannia class locomotive.

Miniature Railway
Other attractions include a gauge miniature steam railway which runs for 1 mi on the site.

Tramway
There is also a one-third full-size (1:3) electric tramcar which runs for a 0.5 mi on the site, on track of gauge. This is the only electric railway of any gauge in Wales.(Apart from the short 18 inch gauge electric tramway in Heath Park, CARDIFF, owned by Cardiff MRES)
