Transport for Wales launches new online brand shop
Transport for Wales (TfW) has launched a new online brand shop offering merchandise designed to celebrate the beauty of Wales while supporting the transport network.
The shop offers a collection of items from drinkware and prints to postcards and souvenirs designed to capture the essence of travel across the network.
Many items in TfW’s brand shop are made in Wales, allowing customers to support local businesses while taking home a piece of their journey.
Creation
The concept for the shop emerged from numerous suggestions put forward by TfW staff highlighting a desire for branded merchandise and Welsh-themed items.
Through dedicated workshops, design sprints, and crucial customer research, TfW’s innovation and new product team transformed these ideas into a tangible reality, developing a proof of concept that led to the creation of this shop.
Barry Lloyd, Head of Innovation and New Product Development at Transport for Wales said: “This initiative is a fantastic way to connect with the people we serve on a new level, offering them beautiful and meaningful items that celebrate the transport network which we serve.
“What makes this even more special is that every purchase directly contributes to improving our public transport network, ensuring that every purchase contributes to a better travel experience for the people of Wales and the borders.
“We will continue to explore new ideas to enable us to enhance our offerings within our brand shop.”

TfW is a not-for-profit organisation and all money generated gets reinvested into the transport network for the people of Wales and Borders.

Really?/?
Has anyone tried getting a sensible, clear train timetable from their website?
That would be a far better way of connecting with people…
The app works fine.
Many like me do not mess about with apps.
The website is a mess.
All I’m asking for – and I suspect many others – is a straightforward timetable.
The same data is available through the National Rail website, all the other TOC websites or any other seller of rail tickets like Trainline.
But there’s so much last minute change across the UK rail network that anyone not able to access live information on the move is going to have a more stressful and difficult time.
They need to concentrate on running a train service in Mid-Wales before they go commercial!
The new trains are ready to go, the delays are caused by Network Rail’s experimental signalling on the Cambrian Line.
