The Ffestiniog Railway (in Welsh Rheilffordd Ffestiniog) is a narrow gauge heritage railway, located in Snowdonia in north-west Wales. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Wales. The railway is about 13.5 miles (21.5 km) long and runs from the slate mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog to the harbour at Porthmadog. The line travels through spectacular mountainous scenery and has a track gauge of 1 foot 11.5 inches (600 mm). The first part of the line runs along "the Cob", which is the dyke of the Traeth Mawr "polder".
