[edit] Rheilffordd Dyffryn Rheidol

Is the welsh name for the Brecon Mountain Rheilffordd Dyffryn Rheidol? - This also appears to be the name of the Vale of Rheidol Railway  Willsmith3  (Talk) 20:29, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

No it isn't. In fact most of the infobox information is wrong: it appears whoever created it copied the VoR infobox and didn't bother to update it properly. The Welsh name, gauge (should be 1 ft 11½ in (597 mm) I believe), line length and privatization date (the BMR was never privatized because it was never nationally owned) are incorrect. There should be information about at least the opening and extension of the BMR in there too. Well spotted. Gwernol 20:35, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
