WORK on Talyllyn Railway’s new two-road heritage shed at Tywyn Wharf is unlikely to now start this winter, as had been hoped, but commencement of groundworks and erection of the frame by Easter may still be possible. Originally estimated to cost around £300,000, rising prices now mean the figure is likely to be closer to £500,000.
ISLE of Man Steam Railway’s museum at Port Erin is currently closed, with several large exhibits temporarily moved out, while work to replace sleepers and deal with woodworm is undertaken.
