The Disused Welsh Railway Ready to Be Restored

Join me on a whistle-stop walk of Anglesey Central Railway - a 17.5-mile branch line that served the important town of Amlwch, the nearby copper mines at Parys Mountain, and then the 20th-century chemical plant on the coast. Closed in the 1990s, it's been sitting waiting for nearly 30 years for someone to come along and open it up again, and breathe fresh life into Anglesey's quiet tourist trade.

I also have a nosy around the ancient Parys Mountain open cast mine, and the abandoned, dystopian site of the old bromine chemical plant.

Update:
Anglesey Central Railway Ltd have recently obtained a 99 year lease from Network Rail to open the line with the view to opening it as a community railway.
