Burry Port & Gwendraeth Valley Railway.

Post by paulb »

I would like to receive information about John James Russell who was the Company Secretary for the BP&GVR from 1864 until his death in 1898 at he age of 66 years. It would appear that he was instrumental in rescuing and managing the railway through difficult times.
