High levels of pollen over the summer blocked some train radiators on the Cambrian Line between Shrewsbury and Aberystwyth , Arriva Trains Wales has revealed (link below.) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/mid/5402692.stmIvor Morris, treasurer of the watchdog , Shrewsbury to Aberystwyth Rail Passenger Service (Sarpa) , said the issue emerged at a meeting with Arriva. He said: "The meeting had been arranged to discuss, in the main, the feasibility of a new hourly service between Aberystwyth and Shrewsbury." |

Quoting Wikipedia:
In modern times Aberystwyth has become a major Welsh educational centre. The indigenous population is around 12,000, but is swelled by an additional 9,250 (2005) students associated with the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. Thus for nine months of the year, Aberystwyth's population is around 21,000 people.
So here's a town that's smaller than Melksham hoping for a hourly train service in to its terminus station. What a contrast!
