Railway station revamp wins award

Oswestry's railway history

A disused railway station in Shropshire which was turned into a visitor centre has won a prestigious heritage award.

The Oswestry Station Building, which is now known as the Cambrian Visitor Centre, has undergone a £2.1m restoration programme in recent years.

The initiative won a joint partnership award from the National Railway Heritage Trust.

Oswestry Borough Council, which led the restoration, said it was "absolutely delighted" with the recognition.
