Green Signals On track for £15M of track renewals on the Cambrian Line & The future of ‘Local Railways’
Join us for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the major £15 million track renewal project on the Cambrian railway line near Machynlleth. In this video, we dive into the impressive 17-day blockade work, featuring full track renewal, bridge repairs, and innovative equipment like the Trac Rail Transposers.
We also explore the exciting 'Local Railway' initiative – a collaboration between Transport for Wales, Network Rail, and other partners aimed at transforming local rail services. Learn about the project's impact, the technology involved, and how this could shape the future of Britain’s railways under the new Great British Railways model.
