Blodwell Junction
Please note that the last named station of Carreghofa Halt would then lead us to the line of the Oswestry and Newtown Railway (as per the journey preamble).

To access Blodwell Junction from Carreghofa Halt, you would have to reverse and take the line of the Tanat Valley Light Railway, which we do not visit on this journey.
