Welcome to the website of Boston Lodge Works

Boston Lodge is the home of the engineering department of the Ffestiniog Railway, the oldest independent railway company in the world. The present workforce are continuing a long established tradition of innovation and quality which stretches back more than 150 years.

Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway train services are run throughout the year, demanding a high standard of rolling stock to ensure reliability. In order to satisfy this demand we are constantly reviewing and improving our design and manufacturing processes to provide dependable locomotives and rolling stock.

Fifty years of preservation work have resulted in a wide range of expertise in the field of engineering at Boston Lodge. Heritage locomotives and carriages can be restored and repaired on site whilst we are also able to produce modern locomotives and stock from the drawing board.

We hope that you will derive some benefit from exploring the website.
