Description
An attractive sheetlet of railway letter stamps issued by the Llanberis Lake Railway (Rheilffordd Llyn Padarn) in North Wales to commemorate the 100th birthday of its locomotive Elidir.
The sheetlet features ten 25p stamps depicting Elidir; the design of all ten stamps is the same, except five are captioned in English and five in Welsh, interspersed within the sheet.
The sheetlet is undated, but Elidir was built – originally for the Dinorwic Quarry – in 1889, so the commemoration of its 100th birthday clearly points to this being a 1989 issue.
