Volunteers clear vegetation for beside railway tracks

A team of Llangollen Railway volunteers have been busy clearing away vegetation from the sides of the track.

Over recent weekends they've worked on Green Lane Cutting, Pentrefellin and Deeside Halt.

One of the team, Rich Smith, said: "The amount of work that has been achieved is great to see. Deeside Halt will continue to be worked on for the next two weekends.

"It's amazing how a bunch of people from different departments of the railway most of whom have never met can come together to achieve the same goal.

"To make the railway we work so hard to keep running and looking as it should is a thing to behold.

"I'm glad to be a part of it to make the paying public appreciate the views it opens up.

"Well done to Robin for organising the whole thing and working every day on the veg cutting and to the volunteers for turning out to help."
