Welshpool

Welshpool Town Council started work in 2015 on restoring the former W&L / Cambrian dual gauge exchange siding and cattle dock. This is close to the present Network Rail station, but separated from it by a road. see image 38805 The site was isolated from the rest of the W&L in 1963. The surviving dual gauge track and cattle docks (complete with pens) are being restored as a heritage attraction and certainly make a pleasant surprise in 2018.
