a study to reopen the Anglesey Central Railway
A project to reconnect Wales' most northerly town to the railway after 55 years is being considered for funding.
A bid has been made for money to carry out a study to reopen the Anglesey Central Railway between Amlwch and the north Wales main line at Gaerwen. The UK government is offering funding to restore lines closed after the 1963 Beeching Report, which proposed cutting about a third of the railway network. The plan is for regular diesel services for locals and occasional steam trains. Full report. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-...eporting-story *

It would be ideal for steam specials to use rather than Holyhead.
Much more interesting things to do in Amlwch. Locomotives could still use the triangle off the main line to turn round. |
