The Padarn Railway was a narrow gauge railway line in Wales built to the unusual gauge of 4 ft (1219 mm). It was built to carry slate from the Dinorwic Quarry (53.1213°N 4.1152°W / 53.1213; -4.1152 (Padarn Railway Gilfach Ddu terminus)) to Port Dinorwic (53.1859°N 4.2090°W / 53.1859; -4.2090 (Padarn Railway Port Dinorwic terminus)). It opened in 1842 replacing the previous Dinorwic Railway. The Padarn Railway closed on the 3rd November 1961.
