From October 1954 to March 1958, Society members were kept informed through a series of irregularly published "Festiniog Railway Society Newsletters". A booklet recording the text of all these newsletters, and some contemporary photos, was published by the Heritage Group in 2004. References to these are listed under FRM but marked Newsletters
The first proper FRM issue was published in the Summer of 1958, and until issue 144 (Spring 1994) the title was "Festiniog Railway Magazine". Commencing with issue 145 it became the "Ffestiniog Railway Magazine".
You may see references in both printed publications and this wiki to FRM, usually followed by 2 numbers. i.e. FRM-001-01 This refers to the issue of the magazine, and the page no.
The on line index of Ffestiniog Railway Magazine is maintained by the FR Heritage Group on their web site and is available to all members of the public. It is an invaluable source for Festipedia contributors in that they can easily look up who has written what about the FR in the Magazine. There is also an Index in the same place of Heritage Group Journal.
