From Festipedia, hosted by the FR Heritage Group

Unsure if this is day of incident or date information quoted was published

From the Mining Journal, page 226:-

The severity of the recent gale was so great that one of the carriages of the Festiniog Railway was blown off the line near Diphwys (Duffws). Fortunately no injuries were received and the passengers assisted the officials in replacing the carriage on the rails [1]
