Publisher's Synopsis
First published in 1976, this is the third edition, substantially the same as the previous editions apart from the final chapter 'Postscript' and includes 107 illustrations, either photographs or maps. The other fourteen chapters tell the story from the early origins of the line, the building and its early years, takeover by the Great Western, then the familiar story of Nationalisation, decline and closure. Yet the ghost of this fondly remembered line lives on in the name of a local Welsh language news sheet and a local society of railway modellers.
