Information About

Pontypool And Blaenavon Railway




It has not increased in track size since opening, but it has increased as a going concern, with a larger number of volunteers, a larger amount of operationl rolling stock, and more definite plans for the railway's future. It is planned to first extend the railway towards the town of Blaenavon , the nearest town to the railway's headquarters by roughly a mile, to the site of the former Blaenavon High Level station (once the London & North Western Railway's station in the town). After this is hopefully achieved, the railway will turn towards extending the line northwards, under a small road bridge and along the still intact track bed.

The railway runs every weekend between spring and September. There are also a selection of special weekends through the spring and summer, as well as Santa Specials nearing Christmas.
