Welcome to the South Wales and West (SWW) Branch

Our branch area roughly aligns with the South Wales and Western Traffic Areas, stretching from Aberystwyth to Land's End and across to Bournemouth.

Such a wide and varied area does mean that our Bulletin, published around 9 times a year, is always packed. Each issue contains articles on current and historical operations in our area, reports on our meetings and days out, and includes any feedback received from members. The Route News section records changes from operators large and small, alternating in successive bulletins between South Wales and South West England, supplemented with relevant photographs.

Events include presentations by invited speakers, visits to operators, and route tours. Speakers give talks after the AGM and at an annual meeting with the Cardiff Transport Preservation Group, and we also join with the latter in a pre-Christmas Quiz evening. Other presentations are given on-line to allow wide participation.
