Talyllyn Junction West was on both the Brecon & Merthyr line and the Central Wakes line to Three Cocks Junction and Hereford.
Principally the services were from Brecon to Merthyr and Newport and on the Midland route from Brecon to Three Cocks Junction. This gave a variety of stock and most of the trains were fairly short to take into account the steep grades of the line. These trains were worked by many different classes, but predominantly 0-6-0 Pannier Tanks on the Western Region side and the Ivatt 2MT 2-6-0 & Tender locos on the Midland side. Other locos were worked on the line, but not as regular as the two classes mentioned above. |
