In the July issue…
Corwen’s new station
Gareth Evans reports on the formal opening of the Llangollen Railway’s new western terminus. Reflecting the fact that public trains now connect two local market towns, the Dee Valley line is to be marketed as the Llangollen & Corwen Railway.
Practice & Performance
GB Railfreight invited John Heaton FCILT to Felixstowe to get a driver’s eye view of the cross-country route to the Midlands via Peterborough. He provides insight into the operational and infrastructure constraints as well as opportunities between the sea port and the inland freight terminals at Hams Hall and Birch Coppice.
Walking the Welsh Highland
As the Welsh Highland Railway celebrates its centenary this year, John Stretton takes a pictorial journey along the narrow gauge line, showing scenes before and after its reconstruction in the late 1990s and 2000s. Passing through some truly stunning scenery, the 25 mile route connects Caernarfon with Porthmadog via Beddgelert.
