"The story of the rise, fall and rise again of the Welsh Highland Railway". Looking at the history of the line with it's troubled and protracted gestation and shortlived existence through to the magnificent reconstruction now being undertaken. The title is justified not just by the eventual travel the new railway will provide and the spectacular scenery it passes through but in the engineering and conception of the scheme to revive it.

Vehicle Light Weighting, Crash Resistence & Recyclability
This one day seminar would concentrate on the technical issues raised by the need to reduce automotive vehicle weight and would consider the main candidate materials for vehicle light-weighting and then the performance and design issues raised by their use. The ability to recycle these materials would also be addressed and strategies for simultaneously reducing weight and improving recyclability (the enabling technologies) will be considered.
