Brecon Mountain Railway

Travel with smoke and steam in splendid Wales.

The line runs from Pant, near Merthyr Tydfil. Travel in one of our all-weather Observation Carriages, behind a vintage steam locomotive, into the Brecon Beacons National Park to see stunning views of the peaks of the Beacons across the Taf Fechan reservoir.

You can now enjoy our new extension to Torpantau, high in the Brecon Beacons.

At Pontsticill you can alight from the train and visit our lakeside cafe, see our new steam museum, admire the view or go for a ramble alongside the reservoir. There is also a children’s play area here.

On your return to Pant you can visit the workshop where our steam locomotives are repaired and new ones are built.

Our licensed restaurant is open for refreshment, gifts and souvenirs are available from our shop or you may wish to visit our new Traditional sweet shop.

Don't miss the Steam Museum in Pontsticill too!
