Heritage Infrastructure It is fortunate that despite the fact that many years have elapsed since the last British Rail passenger trains ran to Oswestry, a surprising amount of Oswestry’s rich railway heritage survives today. Firstly, the track and track bed is intact from Gobowen to Blodwell. Secondly, such treasures as the main Station buildings at Oswestry and Gobowen still survive. Also still in existence are the Locomotive, Carriage and Wagon works at Oswestry, together with the pedestrian footbridge to it. All these structures are ‘Listed’. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s British Railways operated the line very much as had the GWR. Brunswick Green locomotives and “Chocolate and Cream” station name boards could be seen.
