		Transport to and from the works was a problem from the beginning as the Llandudno Junction to Blaenau Ffestiniog railway ran along the opposite side of the valley, and hence the far side of the River Conwy, and local roads were in poor condition.
		An old Russian whaling ship, the "Anna Olga" was purchased for use as a floating warehouse in Conwy harbour and a forty ton steam boat, the "Pioneer" was used for the river traffic, later joined by other vessels.
		Leaving the bridge the curve continued as the line descended to the level of the surrounding land.
