Gwili & Teifi Valley Railways #2

Continuing Dave’s Welsh photos.  First, some more modern stock on the line, plus some bits and pieces around the workshops.

A slight diversion onto a miniature railway.

Then onto the Teifi Valley Railway.  The Teifi Valley Railway is a 2 ft narrow gauge railway occupying a section of the former standard gauge Great Western Railway line between Llandysul and Newcastle Emlyn. After the closure of the former line by British Rail in 1973, a preservation group built and periodically extended a narrow-gauge railway along the route, westwards from Henllan, eventually operating a 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) long line as a tourist attraction.  In 2014, the railway closed and much of the track was lifted. It re-opened in 2016, running along about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) of relaid track.

Here are Dave’s images of this little line.

Next time I’ll be reporting the excitement of the ESNG AGM.  As exciting as the England football team?
