Welcome aboard to Wrexham, the town with an unusual claim to fame. The owners of the local football club, who also happen to be Hollywood stars, have certainly put the town on the map.

The Welsh government’s train company, Transport for Wales, has decided to honor the co-owners by naming two of its trains after their respective hometowns. The move has drawn attention to the impact the duo has had on the club and the surrounding community.

The publicity surrounding Wrexham’s newfound international recognition has been estimated to be worth over £1 billion. The club’s revenue has seen a significant increase since their arrival, with a 75% surge to over £10 million for the year ending in June 2023.

This is a stark contrast to the meager annual revenue of £1.5 million to £3 million seen before their ownership. Wrexham recently achieved back-to-back promotions in the English football pyramid, a historic first for the club.

The co-owners have undoubtedly had a global and lucrative effect on the area, and the town is gearing up to celebrate their success. The impact they have had on the club and the community is undeniable, marking a new and exciting chapter in Wrexham’s history.

Transport for Wales’ decision to name the trains after the duo has been met with mixed reactions, with some critics dubbing it sycophantic. However, the train company insists that it is a genuine tribute to the co-owners’ impact, and it has also led to an increase in demand for trains heading to Wrexham.

The announcement has stirred up excitement and brought attention to Wrexham, highlighting the unique and unexpected connections between Hollywood and the North Wales town.
