Tape 2 Machynlleth to Aberystwyth & return

[@richardsterne2875]

It would be nice to see a modern cab view as there have been changes to the line (new station at Bow Street and track layout at Dovey Junction)

[@andrewjohnfox]

Another very enjoyable video, and for Wales a surprising amount of straight track. The detail in the line knowledge commentary on outward journey was very good. This was appreciated even more when trying to work out exactly where we were on the return journey! Dovey Junction, with no road access, is something of a rarity in stations and a good place to watch Ospreys if anyone wants to combine two hobbies!

Rode this line on 1961 am going to ride it again in March 2020 simply wonderful part of Wales, thank you for this film!

Enjoyed this ride along a rather lovely green/rural part of West Wales to the isolated town of Aberystwyth - literarily a "line to the outside world!"

I love it.. When all the covid19 restrictions are over I will get with my brother & do this one for sure .. a wonderful journey..

West Wales is just stunning. I believe locally they call it Paradise.

[@nawbus]

Agreed. Just wish I could visit at the moment. One of these days...!

[@ds1868]

Lived there for three years. It's a beautiful part of Wales.

You might like to know that the building at 18:10 is part of a network of WW2 observation bunkers used when Ynyslas was a top secret rocket range.

[@nawbus]

Thanks for that. I'll have to look into this as I didn't know about the rocket range

[@williamrubinstein3442]

Dovey Junction must be the most isolated train station in the uk.

[@lesliegprice6652]

I think Rannock Moor on the Highland line has that honour actually....

RIP to the 2 young girls who were killed by a train in summer 2000 on that bridge 19:06

Nice video, what year was it recorded ?

[@nawbus]

Thank you. I believe it was in the summer / autumn of 1993 not long after the opening of the new Welshpool station (opened July 1993).
