With the new operators of Wales and Borders rail services taking over the running of the franchise, one Tenby councillor has been impressed with one of its first actions - to pay tribute to the centenary of the end of the First World War.

“I popped down to take this photo of one of the train’s whilst at Tenby Railway Station, which displayed a poppy emblem on the side, which was a nice touch I thought,” said Clr. Trevor Hallett.

French-Spanish joint venture KeolisAmey promises to eventually replace all trains, at a cost of £800m and also rebrand the trains.

"From day one, we’ll see changes come in quite gradually," said TfW chief executive James Price.

"We’ll see branding beginning to change, staff uniforms will look different - and over the coming months you’ll see new services introduced.

"Then the next 12 to 18 months, the beginnings of the new rolling stock will come into play."

It will be a while before passengers feel the benefit of new trains - the first should appear in 2021 but with the promise that all will be replaced by 2023

Transport for Wales’ branding will be appearing on staff uniforms, at stations and on some trains, while a new website and app will be running for customers by Monday

All stations will also get a deep-clean, with the programme starting in December.
