The Penrhyn Castle Railway Museum (Welsh: Amgueddfa Rheilffordd Castell Penrhyn) is a museum of industrial railway equipment, located at Penrhyn Castle near Bangor in Wales. In the nineteenth century, Penrhyn Castle was the home of the Pennant family (from 1840, the Douglas-Pennants), owners of the Penrhyn slate quarry at Bethesda. The quarry was closely associated with the development of industrial narrow-gauge railways, and in particular the Penrhyn Quarry Railway (PQR), one of the earliest industrial railways in the world. The PQR ran close to Penrhyn Castle, and when the castle was bequeathed to the National Trust in 1951 a small museum of industrial railway relics was created in the stable block.

  • Das Penrhyn Castle Railway Museum ist ein Eisenbahnmuseum im Penrhyn Castle bei Bangor in Wales. Im 19. Jahrhundert wohnte die Familie Pennant, die ab 1840 Douglas-Pennant hieß und den Schiefersteinbruch von Penrhyn bei Bethesda besaß, im Penrhyn Castle. Der Steinbruch wurde schon früh mit einer Schmalspurbahn, der Penrhyn Quarry Railway (PQR), erschlossen. Diese verlief in der Nähe von Penrhyn Castle. Deshalb wurde dort in den ehemaligen Pferdeställen 1951 ein kleines Werkseisenbahn-Museum eingerichtet. (de)
