First proposed in 1869 after a branch line from Bangor to Llanberis had been completed, stiff opposition from the landowner Mr George William Duff Assheton-Smith of the Vaynol Estate, thought that a railway would spoil the scenery. It doesn't spoil the scenery - it makes it more accessible.
Commissioned in 1984, Dinorwig Power Station is highly regarded all over the world.
Imaginative engineering & environmental achievements combined with it's dynamic response capability & operational characteristics are still acknowledged the world over.
It's the largest scheme of its kind in Europe with 16km of underground tunnels, it can come on-line in under 12 seconds,
