Ailosod y trac

Nid cwympo mewn cariad gyda rheilffyrdd yn unig wnaeth David pan symudodd i Gorris...
Beth yw eich hanes chi?
Ce's i fy ngeni yn Rhydychen yn fab i athro a nyrs. Roeddwn wedi symud o gwmpas tipyn yn blentyn - Sir Rhydychen, De Cymru a Essex - ond Machen, rhwng Casnewydd a Chaerffili yw gartref i mi. Wnes i gychwyn gweithio hefo 'Marconi' yn Chelmsford cyn symud i Gorris. Yno, wnes i gyfarfod a phriodi merch leol a dwi' dal yma. Mae gennym dri o blant - Dyfrig, Elin a Gerwyn. Mae gen i ddiddordeb mawr mewn rheilffyrdd Corris, tynnu lluniau a gwylio rygbi - mae'r plant i gyd yn chwarae.
Am beth mae eich stori yn sôn?
Mae'r stori yn sôn amdana' i a fy nheulu, ond mae'r wraig yn addoli Elvis - mae'n gas gen i o.
