FESTINIOG RAILWAY HERITAGE GROUP 

We publish the results of research and may provide funding. We give grants for creating replicas of items that have been lost or destroyed and to support groups using the crafts historically used by the Ffestiniog Railway. We give grants to preserve the historic appearance of artefacts used by the FR. We encourage education of the railway's staff in heritage matters.
