Summer has arrived at The Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways, so to celebrate they have launched their very own ice cream flavour, Steam Coal Ice Cream.
 
This will be available at their new Ice Cream Stands on the station platforms.
 
The ice cream flavour is vanilla made by Welsh Ice Cream manufacturer Marios.
 
It will be available alongside Mint Choc Chip, chocolate, strawberry, salted caramel, and for vegans, a red cherry sorbet.
 
The FR&WHR is the only place in the UK to sell Steam Coal Ice Cream, so be sure to visit and give it a try, the railways locomotive crews certainly have, and they very much approve.
 
"It is really important for us to serve local produce here at our catering outlets and choosing a Welsh Ice cream maker was top of my list. Marios were happy to cater my idea of steaming in with a brand-new product! It is actually a very tasty vanilla and something a bit different which will hopefully raise a smile from our passengers when they come to our new ice cream stand," said Elwyn Edwards, FR&WHR Catering Manager.
