Llanelli & Mynydd Mawr Railway - Cynheidre Heritage Project

Llanelli & Mynydd Mawr Railway - Cynheidre Heritage Project Cynheidre Heritage Project See: - http://www.llanellirailway.co.uk/ How can you help us? We open on a series of dates throughout the calendar year.

The Llanelli & Mynydd Mawr Railway is a heritage railway project located 6 miles north of Llanelli in west Wales, UK. The route of the original railway is recognised as Britain's first operating public railway authorised by the Act of Parliament in 1802 and which began traffic in May 1803 as the Carmarthenshire Tramroad. The railway opens on selected days throughout the year and offers standard ga

uge train rides over half a mile of running line (to be extended gradually as funds allow). The railway currently owns a variety of rolling stock including diesel locomotives and diesel multiple units. Other organisations such as the Cab Yard, the London Transport Traction Group, the Class 315 Preservation Society and the Suburban Electric Railway Association are also present at the railway and are playing an active part in the railways future plans, with their assets being incorporated into future attractions. The project is also looking to utilise the natural beauty of the area, including development of the woodland area for nature related activities. Just liking this page makes a huge difference in promoting us, but you can also help in many other ways:

1. Volunteer with us - We have a range of projects that require all different types of skills and not just railway skills and knowledge.
2. Becoming a member - Joining our membership scheme allows you to financially assist us from afar.
3. Visit us on an operating day - Why not come and see what we have to offer? For full opening details please visit www.llanellirailway.co.uk or contact us on Facebook.
