Brecon Mountain Railway















The Brecon Mountain Railway can be found 3 miles north of Merthyr Tydfil. Leave your car in the car park. Browse the shop, enjoy a coffee, make use of the toilet facilities, buy your ticket (and one for your gog at £2.50) and take a nostalgic train ride.

The steam train runs alongside local reservoirs and into the Brecon Beacons National Park with its beautiful mountain, lake and forest scenery. It stops at Pontsticill where you can get out and enjoy the scenery. Linger a while if you want then get a later train back. There are excellent walks and the Red Cow Inn in the village serves real ales and good value pub grub.
