Croesawiad Dave.
I am Reg from Bangor ,Co Down. Many years ago, we spent a lot of summer holidays in Llanddodno and Conwy 1946~51 (I was a school boy then) can remember getting trams from Llanddodno to Conwy and there was a cable tram that went up the mountain called the Great Orme --

Never went to Llanelli. I worked on cable ships and land stations in the South Pacific and ended up owning a restaurant.
Reg.
