There was Groesfford Halt between Talyllyn and Brecon - certainly open to passengers in 1949. Or are we saying it's not on the required line?

I am not denying this for a moment but would remind you that Brecon was served by no less than three different railway companies in mid-Victorian times, each with their own railway station in Brecon :-

Free Street....which is the one I named as this is the station for the Neath and Brecon Railway, on whose line we are on.

The other two stations of the other two companies were Mount Street and The Watton, to which I refer you to either of these two Brecon stations as being the one that Groesffordd Halt had services to (note the " DD " at the end of the station name)
