Brecon Mountain Railway

The Brecon Mountain Railway is purely, and unashamedly, a tourist attraction. Although built partly on a former standard gauge trackbed it is not, in any way, a preserved railway. It does have some features of interest though, even for the rail enthusiast. It's worth noting that it is also disabled accessible at Pant Station.

The line is built to a gauge of 1′ 11 3/4″ and runs mainly German and American stock.

Pant Station

The curious structure to the right of the picute is one of 3 "Pepper Pot" ventilation shafts from a tunnel on the former L & NW Railway - the line closed in 1958.
