In 2021, mysterious rail tracks leading out to sea re-emerged on a beach in north Wales - and now more evidence of the hidden, long-lost Victorian railway has appeared. There was excitement in the seaside town of Barmouth eighteen months ago, when sections of the 19th century narrow-gauge tracks were discovered on Barmouth Beach.
Now, the remains of an associated rolling stock for the tracks have also been spotted - with old iron wheels and axles occasionally becoming visible at low tide, reports North Wales Live. The track and rolling stock have been submerged for decades beneath the sand on the beach’s northern end.
It is thought that they have been gradually exposed in recent years by shifting sand patterns on the constantly-evolving coastline. This latest discovery has delighted long-time visitors.
