The Cambrian Heritage Railways is a heritage railway company, trust and society based at both Llynclys and Oswestry in its newly restored Oswestry railway station, Shropshire, England.

Formed after the 2009 merger of the Cambrian Railways Society and the Cambrian Railways Trust, it aims to reinstate the infrastructure required to operate trains from Gobowen to Llynclys Junction (for Pant) and to Blodwel.[1]

Cambrian Heritage Railways also operates the Cambrian Railways Museum in the Oswestry railway station's former goods depot.[2] Displays include photographs, signs, lamps, signal box fittings and artefacts related to the history of the Cambrian Railways.
