Talk:Severn Valley Railway Timeline 1980-1989

Am I right to think that 5051 carried a somewhat mis-spelt nameplate? The accepted name I can find for the actual castle is "Dryslwyn", but the name plate (at least in preservation) does seem to show "Drysllwyn", which most railway sites agree with. I wouldn't put it past the GWR to have done it, as they weren't always the best with Welsh names... --Danny252 (talk)

The Great Western Archive confirms it was originally built as Drysllwyn Castle. Welsh and typing don't feature on my list of strong points, maybe the same was true of the GWR. --Robin (talk) 18:57, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
