  • Network Rail and Taziker have once again worked together to renew three rural railway stations on the Cambrian Coast Line.
    Each platform at Tygwyn, Llandanwg and Llanaber stations had deteriorated over time and urgent work was required to make them safe and sustainable for passengers.
    Many thanks to Network Rail Works Delivery Buildings team for Wales and all involved in this project.

    I think Taziker are bound to ‘put shareholders first’ (not passengers) for if I am not mistaken they are a commercial enterprise. Mind you it is nice to hear travellers referred to as ‘passengers’ rather than ‘customers’ (which was misleading terminology). Best of all is that this route survives and is being renovated 🙂

    Wish Network Rail would do something about the vegetation infestation on brick structures. Bridges viaducts and supporting walls are being ripped apart by the powerful roots of the Buddlia plant. Only a matter of time before a cutting supporting wall collapses onto the running lines. Failure to sort this problem is going to cost billions.

    The Cambrian is a mess. Stations are awful basic unstaffed halts. Linesides are unkempt, as in the track that in many locations look like a field with polished rails through the middle. The useless signalling system ERTMS is a joke, as only class 158s and the 4 class 97s can use the line! No specials, no steam, no freight! A complete shaddow of it's once glorious self! No inspiration from NR to want to improve things either or make anything of probably the most scenic route in the UK!!! Come on NR, get rid of the ERTMS(as we aren't even in Europe anymore) so the system is pointless! Get a system in use where railtours, steam & diesel, and freight can return, bringing much needed revenue to the area. At present,and until things change, there is no incentive to visit the line by rail. Thanks, a 46 year career railwayman.

      I know what you mean but I don’t think ERTMS is going anywhere anytime soon as TFW are equipping their new class 197s with it for use on the Cambrian line . Doubt network rail want to spend much money on the Cambrian because they done class it as busy
