Welcome to the official website of Cymdeithas Rheilffordd Eryri, the Welsh Highland Railway Society.  The Society exists to give support for the Welsh Highland Railway, including voluntary work for the Railway and financial support for projects on the Railway.

The website caters both for members of the Society and for those with an interest who might wish to join the Society.

In this site you will find information on:

About the Society

The Society is the official supporters' body for the project to rebuild, maintain and operate the Welsh Highland Railway, a narrow gauge line across the mountains of North Wales that closed in the 1930s. The project is led by the Ffestiniog Railway. WHRS members are playing a leading part in  the rebuilding and operation of the Railway.

Membership

New members are always welcome, whether they wish to play an active part in the Society's activities or just support the Railway  from a distance. In return for your support there are a number of benefits:

• "The Snowdon Ranger", a quarterly magazine about the Railway
• Free travel on the WHR and privilege travel on the Ffestiniog Railway
• A link to a nationwide community of fellow supporters

We need the help and support of as many people as possible to realise this dream. If you are interested in joining, please see our membership page.
