When one more map, the final map, in the series "RVR Historical Maps of England & Wales" has been drawn, it is proposed to create a separate gallery, displaying all the Map Trailers in the form of a 'mosaic', with that for NE England in the top right corner and South West England in the bottom left, thereby forming an alternative and probably more useful type of index.
This final map will aim to show the rail network from Cardiff to Newport, and will feature the "Welsh Valleys" which are complex in structure, and, as several lines have been re-opened, some research is needed to determine the accuracy, and the current extent of each one
- and now to the drawing 'board' !!
