In the summertime the passenger traffic is very great, and streams of tourists from all parts of the United Kingdom are continually passing from place to place. There are seven or eight Junctions on the line, several ports, including the slate port of Portmadoc, and market towns like Oswestry, Ellesmere, Llanfyllin, Welshpool, Newtown, Machynlleth, and Llanidloes and the cele- brated watering place of Aberystwy tn, and also Barmouth, Towyn, Dolgelley, Criccieth, &c. v Many of the Stations are starting points for some of the r most frequented tourist routes in Great Britain- including Snowdonia, the regions about Cader Idris, the famous Valley of the Mawddach, &c.
