    Can anyone tell me what weight rail the above uses (for new laying)? I am trying to get a comparison with other 762mm lines. Thanks in anticipation.

    I believe the WLLR uses the same newly rolled S30 (30 kg/m, so approx 60 lb/yd) rail that the Welsh Highland Railway and Ffestiniog Railway have been using recently.
