Indignation Meeting - Abergynolwyn

This is a song about our favourite station on our favourite railway. We wrote it in 2020, but this is a newly recorded version accompanied by a video filmed entirely on location at the Talyllyn Railway. The music is written and performed by Indignation Meeting, who are Peter & Michael Hirst, and recorded & mastered by Andrew Forknell. The video was filmed & edited by Peter Hirst. The lyrics are: Abergynolwyn Is my favourite station On the Talyllyn Railway In the heart of Wales Yes Abergynolwyn Is a great location Seven miles from Tywyn On narrow gauge rails Abergynolwyn Is the station Where the refreshment lady Was left behind In the story By the Reverend Awdry In ‘Four Little Engines’ From 1955 Abergynolwyn Has an adventure playground Near the car park With a very big slide And a woodland walk to The station platform Where you can catch a train and Go for a ride Abergynolwyn Is just past Dolgoch About five miles from Cynfal Halt Travel there with Douglas Or Edward Thomas Or maybe Dolgoch Sir Haydn or Tom Rolt At Abergynolwyn Is the Quarryman’s Caban Where they sell good coffee And tea ON toast And when you’ve eaten You can get the steam train Back down to Tywyn And the Cambrian Coast
