Rheilffordd Dyffryn Rheidol

Is the welsh name for the Brecon Mountain Rheilffordd Dyffryn Rheidol? - This also appears to be the name of the Vale of Rheidol Railway Willsmith3 _(Talk) 20:29, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No it isn't. In fact most of the infobox information is wrong: it appears whoever created it copied the VoR infobox and didn't bother to update it properly. The Welsh name, gauge (should be 23.5 I believe), line length and privatization date (the BMR was never privatized because it was never nationally owned) are incorrect. There should be information about at least the opening and extension of the BMR in there too. Well spotted. Gwernol 20:35, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Graf Schwerin-Löwitz build date

The photo caption says 1890, the table in the body says 1908. Which is right? Cooperised (talk) 21:40, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

1908 per <ref name="IRS 15EL">{{cite book | author = [[Industrial Railway Society]] | title = Industrial Locomotives (15EL) | publisher = Industrial Railway Society | year = 2009 | isbn = 978 1 901556 53 7}}</ref> Railwayfan2005 (talk) 19:39, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Purpose of line

The purpose of the line has not been 'to take tourists into the national park'. The purpose hitherto will have been, in general terms, to run a steam railway as a commercial operation. However the intended opening of a station at the northern end of the existing line at Torpantau more or less or the start of the 2013 season will permit visitors to leave their cars at pant and travel into the national park and walk/picnic etc. Geopersona (talk) 21:26, 13 December 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Different gauges on different pages

On this page it says the BMR is 603mm yet British narrow-gauge railways says it's 610mm, may anybody who has been there verify which gauge is the true gauge of the BMR? Paul McParkway (talk) 00:40, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
