A man has been captured on CCTV trying to board a train accompanied by a pony.



Shocked staff watched as the man tried to get on the train at Wrexham General station with the white pony in tow

After a conductor refused him entry, the man returned to the ticket booth where he tried to buy two tickets - for himself and the animal.



An Arriva Trains Wales (ATW) spokeswoman said "Horses and ponies, which may pose a risk to the general public, are not permitted to travel".

The man tried to travel on Saturday's 1902 BST service to Holyhead on Anglesey with his four-legged companion.

The ATW spokeswoman added: "Arriva Trains Wales allows dogs and small animals to travel onboard trains.

"All animals, except dogs, must be conveyed within a fully enclosed basket or pet carrier with dimensions not exceeding 85 x 60 x 60cm."

She said the man later left the station with the animal, adding: "I'm not aware that anything like this has happened before."
