Opened in 1902, this narrow-gauge railway was a vital transport link serving the local lead mines in the region. This image, taken in the 1960s, captures the railway's rich history and the industrious spirit of the era. The Rheidol Vale Railway, also known as the Vale of Rheidol Railway, was a miniature railway that operated on a 2ft 3in (686 mm) gauge. This historical railway line, which stretches from Aberystwyth to Devil's Bridge, was a significant part of Britain's railway network during the early 20th century.
