Railway Structures at Risk

Do you know of any railway, tramway or industrial railway structures in Wales that are derelict, decaying or are due for demolition?

Do you have any plans, photographs or details of structures already lost which we could copy for our Research Centre in South Wales?

If so, the WRRC would like to hear from you. We are aiming to record these buildings, bridges, weighbridges, goods sheds etc. keeping measurements, photographs and other details for posterity before they are lost. Not only can we digitally copy photographs and plans for archiving purposes, but we may also be able to assist if you are aiming to protect these heritage structures.

If you are able to assist in this worthwhile venture, please contact the webmaster, or write to the Circle at:

PLEASE NOTE: Many of these structures are on either railway or other private property. Appropriate permissions should always be sought before carrying out any recording of structures. The Welsh Railways Research Circle cannot be held responsible for any action taken against an individual or for any injury incurred.
