A brief annotation | The Merrdin Emrys was the first locomotive to be built by the Festiniog Railway Company in its own workshops at Boston Lodge in 1879. It is a double engine or Double Fairlie locomotive. The idea of the coin series is to combine impressive minted famous railengines with partial color print with additional original photographs in a vintage manner on the glass inlay. |
