Gwynedd rail line still closed after damage [BBC News]





Date: 27/02/2017

A railway line in Gwynedd is to stay closed after it was damaged during Storm Doris. Engineers have been working to repair the line after a large tree fell onto the track between Llanrwst and Blaenau Ffestiniog on Thursday. But the work has unveiled an unstable rock formation directly next to the track which requires further attention. Network Rail said it would be 'unsafe' to reopen the line on Monday as planned.
