Climb aboard a new adventure!
We invite you to join us on our exciting journey to rebuild the Mountaineer Locomotive, in original form, as designed by George England for the Ffestiniog Railway in 1863.
Join us in bringing this iconic Welsh locomotive back to life!

“I set out to design a project that would allow narrow gauge enthusiasts, like myself, to immerse themselves in a real restoration journey. I want our members to experience a footplate ride like they’ve never known before!”
David Wood
Chairman, 1863 Mountaineer Locomotive Ltd.
