===Constituent railways===
The earliest section of the Cambrian was the section from [[Three Cocks]] to [[Talyllyn]]. This had been opened in 1816 as part of the ''Hay Railway'', a tram-road worked by horses connecting the town of [[Hay]] with the [[Brecknock and Abergavenny Canal]] at [[Brecon]]. The western section was sold to the [[Brecon and Merthyr Railway]]; the eastern section became part of the Mid-Wales Railway (see below).
