Ffestiniog Railway - Tan Y Bwlch Station
A new stainless steel extraction canopy manufactured by POD Stainless Steel Products Ltd in our own Wolverhampton based factory was recently installed at Tan Y Bwlch station on the Ffestiniog railway line in North Wales. Complete with removable stainless steel baffle filters for easy maintenance and cleaning, the unit included a CA400 cased axial fan motor with new ducting and cowl. The new ducting was linked to the existing gas safety interlock panel using an internally mounted pressure sensing switch. Full test and maintenance information was supplied on completion.
The work was completed in one day, and with an ‘early-doors’ start ensuring very little disruption to the restaurant facility located at a busy station on the railway line. The frequent passing trains encouraged the POD team to operate at ‘full steam’ to deliver the project exactly to timetable!
