  • Growing Mid Wales National Development Framework Response FINAL
    Growing Mid Wales – Call for Evidence and Projects for a new National Development Framework The Mid Wales Region Mid Wales is the heart of Wales though which everything flows, and therefore successful spatial planning and development in the region is vital to ensure development in all other regions in Wales, and across the border with our English counterparts. It has long been felt that a new cohesive approach to development is needed in Mid Wales, an approach that takes into account the region’s distinct assets and rural nature that set it apart from every other region in Wales and demands a different set of interventions. The proposed National Development Framework (NDF) is very much seen as an opportunity to provide that ‘step-change’ that is vitally need in the Mid Wales economy, and to combat long-standing market failure in areas such as employment sites and premises in the Severn Valley area. In all activity targeted around enhanced connectivity, it should be recognised that development should not stop at the border between England and Wales. In fact, increased cross-border cooperation on issues pertinent to the proposed NDF is vital to ensure well-rounded development. Growing Mid Wales The Growing Mid Wales Partnership is a strong regional partnership comprising of representative bodies from across the private, public and voluntary sector in Mid Wales and was established in early 2015. It has been fully recognised as a regional footprint in the recent Welsh Government White Paper on Local Government Reform, which also advocates the systematic consolidation of economic development and strategic land use planning, amongst other functions, on a regional footprint.

  • Cambrian Railways User Manual
    CAMBRIAN RAILWAYS USER MANUAL Introduction Prior to 1923 the Cambrian Railways operated a network of lines in and around Mid Wales, stretching from Whitchurch in Shropshire to Aberystwyth and Pwllheli on the Irish Sea coast. The Cambrian branches extended deep into the rural valleys, while the Cambrian main line climbed to the summit at Talerddig before descending towards the coast. Perhaps most famous of all is the Cambrian Coast line, featured in the earlier 3DTrainStuff route, which follows arguably the most beautiful coastline in Britain. After the 1923 amalgamation, the Cambrian lines formed part of the Great Western Railway and in 1948 they became a rural outpost of the British Railways Western Region. Sadly, it wasn't long before the branch lines were closed followed by parts of the main line and many stations. Today, all that remains of the former Cambrian network is the main line between Welshpool and Aberystwyth plus the coast line to Pwllheli. Access to Welshpool is provided by the former GWR/LNWR line from Shrewsbury. Our Cambrian Railways route includes most of the Cambrian network, with the exception of the main line between Oswestry and Whitchurch. The line from Shrewsbury is also included. The nominal era of the route is 1960, although this hasn't stopped us from including branch lines that closed in the 1950s and the impressive station roof at Shrewsbury. As you will discover, there are plenty of passenger stations and goods sidings, allowing infinite activity possibilities and many enjoyable hours of driving. Station names and spellings Several of the stations on the Cambrian have changed their names or spellings over the past few decades and a decision had to be taken regarding which version of the name to adopt in our route.
