Teddy Bear Trains This Weekend
15 September 2017

Llanfair Caereinion Powys Wales United Kingdom - There could be teddy bears galore travelling on the steam trains between Welshpool and Llanfair Caereinion, with their human companions today (Saturday, 16 Sep 2017) and tomorrow (Sunday, 17 Sep 2017).
 
Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway (W&L) is encouraging children to bring their favourite teddy with them and that every child who arrives with a bear and a paying adult, will travel for free.
 
Along the eight mile line, there will be teddy bears to spot, while the railway's own Big Ted will also be on hand to meet children and their teddies and to pose for pictures.
 
W&L spokesman, Andrew Charman, said, "The Teddy Bear weekend is all about the railway's many family visitors, and a complete change to the successful Steam Gala we held at the start of the month. We are looking forward to seeing many young visitors to the line, with their teddy bears of course!"
 
Round trips depart Welshpool's Raven Square station at 11:15 and 14:05 on both days, and from Llanfair Caereinion at 10:00, 13:00, and 15:30.
 
More details including ticket prices can be found on the railway's website or by calling 01938 810441.
