The Bala Lake Narrow Gauge Railway has announced that it has taken the first step in reopening the line to Bala Town.

The narrow gauge railway announced last month that the contracts have taken place for the first plot of land where the new station will be built.

The next step is to buy the warehouse adjacent to the acquired line, which has stood derelict for sometime.

This will allow the railway station at Bala to be established in Bala with nearby car park and toilets.

What does the Chairman of the Bala Lake Railway Trust say?

Julian Birley, who is Chairman of the Bala Lake Railway Trust said “Securing the first piece of land for the new Bala Town station is a hugely significant step towards the construction of the extension of the Bala Lake Railway. The land has been paid for by the very generous donations of our supporters across the UK, showing how important the Red Dragon Project is and how it has captured people’s imaginations. The Trust is indebted to the fantastic work of volunteer solicitor Lisa Williams who has been instrumental in the purchase.”
