Llanidloes and Newtown Railway
This 14-mile long lone opened in 1859 but remained isolated from any other line until the Oswestry and Newtown Railway joined with it in 1863
1864 The 4 lines between Whitchurch and Machynlleth were merged to form Cambrian Railways - this brought together the Oswestry and Newtown Railway, the Oswestry, Ellesmere and Whitchurch Railway, the Llanidloes and Newtown Railway and the Newtown and Machynlleth Railway.
