Cwm Bargoed

37899 "County of West Glamorgan Sir Gorllewin Morgennwg" and 37702 "Taff Merthyr" depart from Cwm Bargoed with coal for Aberthaw Power Station.

 

The chance of a sunny day and three trains a day made these trains very popular with photographers.

 

Still going today but with the end looming this is a fantastic bit of railway. The sheep in this shot have however been replaced by a solar farm.
