The Autumn issue of Rail Wales, the newsletter of Railfuture in Wales reminds us of a Transport for Wales concession. Holders of a Welsh bus pass may travel free of charge between now and the 31st March on the following routes:
- Heart of Wales line;
- Cambrian Coast line;
- Blaenau Ffestiniog branch;
- Wrexham - Hawarden Bridge
New trains
The class 197 train sets completed in CAF's Newport factory are virtually ready to enter service on the Wrexham-Bidston line and throughout North Wales.
Cardiff Bay branch
Two new stations, including one named Butetown, will be opened on the branch. Cardiff Bay station itself will be upgraded. The historic Taff Vale Railway HQ building is, from the published artist's impression, to be retained. It astonishes me that it has not yet been snapped up by an ecologically-aware organisation, given its position a few steps away from a well-served rail station.
