Llangollen Railway

Llangollen Railway is primarily a steam hauled heritage railway located beside the historic Dee Bridge (built in 1345) in Llangollen and run through the Dee Valley to the town of Corwen.

The line follows the River Dee, classed as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), for its entire length.

Our small section of line, which in its day crossed Wales from Ruabon to Barmouth, offers a sample of the sights and sounds of yesteryear passing through some of the finest natural beauty North Wales has to offer.

The railway is located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and this is evident as you meander through the Dee Valley.

From lambs in the Spring to the multicoloured falling leaves of Autumn, the views from our carriages are picturesque and ever changing.

As well as steam hauled trains, we also run Diesel locomotive and Heritage Railcar services on selected days throughout the season.
