John,
Thank you for the information. I tried amazon.co.uk on the off-chance
and was surprised to find it there.
If things don't work out on that order, I'll contact Dennis Williams in
Corwen.
I suspect that my gg grandfather in Corwen (a stonemason) benefited from
the construction work on the line. More recently, my father started his
railway career with the GWR at Corwen Goods Yard in the 1920's, so
there's a strong connection with the Ruabon-Dolgellau line.
Regards,
Ken Richards

Hi Ken
I'm sure it is. I received it as a gift very recently. It is a great book on the
history of the railway up the Clwyd valley and up the Dee valley up to Llandrillo and
about the builders. I was up in Uwch y Dre a couple of months ago visiting a couple of
old friends.
If not in the shops near you then you can probably order it through your local library, or
directly from Dennis Williams. The reference number is
