Llangollen Railway lands a second major award within months

 

Llangollen Railway is celebrating after winning the Heritage Railway Association's Infrastructure Award for its new Corwen station.

A post on the railway's Facebook page says "We are absolutely over the moon!

"This award is a credit to the blood, sweat, tears and much more that have endured over the years to build what is now an award-winning station. A lasting legacy to all concerned.

"The dedication and determination of our volunteers is admirable. From the initial conception to the fundraising efforts, the works carried out to the opening itself have all been a huge undertaking. We are so proud of every single one of you."

Last November the railway was named Go Attraction of the Year for 2023 in the Go North Wales Tourism Awards for its recovery from major financial problems.
