Cambrian Coast rail flood repairs to take months

The Cambrian Coast railway line may not fully reopen for another four months as repairs after tidal storms continue, Network Rail says.

It is closed between Dovey Junction and Pwllheli in Gwynedd due to flood damage at Tywyn, Barmouth and Criccieth. Last week, two trains marooned on the stretch of line had to be lifted onto lorries and taken by road to Chester for routine safety checks.

Some nice photos about 1 mile north of Tywyn station.
