I have been away for a short period of time and have noticed an omission on this quiz.

Between Bromfield and Woofferton, there was a station called Ashford Bowdler

Interesting that of two apparently identical maps one shows it and one doesn't. Guess which one I was looking at

Three Cocks Junction

looking ahead, I'm not sure where we go after Colbren Junction/Neath. There looks to be a gap in the description. Or I'm totally lost. or both.

Look on it logically and remember the route that was shown in the preamble to this particular quiz....we have come to the end of the leg that is the Hereford, Hay and Brecon Railway. Then there is the Neath and Brecon Railway, then the Vale of Neath Railway, before we take the final leg on the Llanelly Railway.

The next station after the last one named is Talyllyn Junction...and to dissipate any route queries, you can look now at the Neath and Brecon Railway, where the first closed station on that leg is....

Brecon Free Street

Cradoc follows

But haven't we skipped a few stations after Three Cocks Junction? Or is that a deliberate gap they being on the Mid-Wales and/or B&M lines??

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

There was a Groessffordd Halt between Talyllyn and Brecon

Cradoc then follows

I am having trouble in amending the name of the final railway on this journey in the posting in which the preamble was given (Posting # 1204). It should read "Llanelly" and not "Kidwelly" Railway, upon which Pontarddulais is situated

You have really helped with that clarification that you make in your last posting....my very old map covering the link area is "scuffed" somewhat in the link area

Penpoint Halt

There were also Talgarth and Trefeinon between 3 Cocks and Talyllyn

The Kidwelly amendment has remove my confusion thanks

The Kidwelly amendment has removed my confusion, thanks

I have suddenly found that I have lost the ability to edit my postings and I have sent a PM to OxtedL, one of the three quizmasters to explain the problem that posting # 1204 should be amended, but of my sudden inability to perform edits. One of the forum administrators has made a Forum Announcement to say that new software is being installed this week, which possibly may be the reason for my inability to edit.

I think we missed Watton station in Brecon - although the Wiki map implies it is the same as Groesffordd they are defintely a mile or so apart

I hope that my "Group PM" was received by "all the regulars" with regard to Llanelly rather that Kidwelly being the name of the Railway in question on the last line of the preamble on posting # 1204 of this quiz and for the reasons for my inability to make the required edit.
