Great Little Trains of Wales
Appearance
The Great Little Trains of Wales is a joint marketing scheme formed in 1970 to promote some of the narrow gauge railways of Wales and encourage visitors to Wales.[1] As well as marketing the railways, the scheme allows visitors to purchase a discount card, allowing reduced rates on all the lines.
As of 2008, there are ten railways in the scheme.
