Gwili Railway, Heritage railway in Bronwydd, Wales.
The Gwili Railway runs along a 4.5-mile track through the Welsh countryside, following the River Gwili from Abergwilli Junction to Danycoed.
The railway line, which opened in 1872, served as a vital transportation route between Carmarthen and Aberystwyth until its closure to passenger traffic in 1965.
The railway society maintains a collection of industrial locomotives and vintage carriages that represent the transportation heritage of Welsh communities.
Visitors can access the railway station at Bronwydd Arms, which features parking facilities, a cafe serving local food, and wheelchair-accessible platforms.
The railway track includes challenging gradients, with sections reaching a 1-in-60 slope north of Bronwydd Arms station, demonstrating Welsh railway engineering.
