'Ellen Morgan' - The Story So Far..
"Why ‘Ellen Morgan’? It is in memory of Ellen Morgan, from Felinheli, a lady who became a friend. Who was the first person to show willingness, in abundance to support the initial concept of the Land Train and the Son et Lumière here at Caernarfon.
Unfortunately she died tragically just after Christmas, having not been able to watch our first Son et Lumière, projected on the walls of Caernarfon Castle in 2006, (she sent a lot of friends though).
She never saw the land train run but I can see her smiling as the train trundles around the streets of Caernarfon. The train will always be called ‘Ellen Morgan’."
Our ultimate goal is to purchase our own train, called 'Ellen Morgan' below are some renderings of our train.
