Railway South from Gobowen
The line veering off to the left once went to Oswestry and beyond. It is hoped trains will again travel this route if the preservation society is successful.

Looking south, Gobowen railway station
Viewed from the end of the Shrewsbury-bound platform. In the distance is a short branch, which goes off to Oswestry. Cambrian Heritage Railways has a plan to rejuvenate the short stretch of line, in a similar manner to those heritage railways at Llangollen and the Severn Valley.

Cambrian Heritage Railways society is working on restoring the route, with completion scheduled for April 2017.

The line to Oswestry
The junction of the line to Oswestry just south of Gobowen station. There has not been a passenger service to Oswestry since 1966 but there appears to have been recent usage. There are currently hopes that it will be reopened by the Cambrian Heritage Railway, using the bay platform at Gobowen.
