WRT acquires Class 117 DMU

The Welsh Railway Trust is delighted to announce that the 3 car class 117 Diesel Multiple Unit, based on the Gwili Railway, has been donated to the WRT by its owners.

Vehicle numbers 51347, 59508, 51401 arrived on the Gwili Railway in 2009 and were in regular service until 2019. TCL 51347 is currently in use as a locomotive hauled coach while the other two vehicles are out of traffic. The WRT is currently drawing up plans to return 59508 and 51401 to operating condition.

We are incredibly grateful to the Llanelli & Dsictrict Railway Society for this kind donation.
