Repoening of old lines in Wales

According to the BBC, Network Rail are to carry out a feasibility (for
the Welsh Assembly Government) on the possibility of reinstating
services on two former track stretches. The lines are on old sections
between Llangefni on Anglesey and Bangor, and between Aberdare and
Hirwaun in the Cynon valley in south Wales.

Anyway - good idea and I hope it happens - the Assembly really has got
its act together on Welsh railways and is making up for the apathy
shown to Wales by the SRA. Tracks are apparently in place on both but
in an overgrown and rather derelict state. I'm aware that Arriva
Trains Wales has ideas about reinstating services to Llangefni (and
Caernarfon) when they bid for the franchise - this idea was abandoned
before they were awarded the franchise.
