The Heart of Wales Line (Welsh: Rheilffordd Calon Cymru) is a railway line running from Craven Arms in Shropshire to Llanelli in South Wales. It runs as the name suggests through some of the heartlands of Wales. It serves a number of rural centres en route including several once fashionable spa towns including Llandrindod Wells. At Builth Road two miles (3.3 km) from the town of Builth Wells the line formerly crossed the route of the earlier Mid Wales Railway which closed in the 1960s.
