Reopening Caernarfon - Bangor would make a lot of sense. It would then be possible to pick up the Welsh Highland to Porthmadoc to connect with the Cambrian Coast Line.

Once they sort ERTMS on the Cambrian Coast there could be quite a bit of spare capacity to run a container service up the coast, as long as Barmouth Bridge will take the strain, to supply Supermarkets in the area. Would be a lot cheaper and more environmentally friendly than trying to improve the roads. I have driven minibuses extensively in the area and know how slow it can be!
