In 1963 at the A468 road overbridge, I photographed the then still-in-use down line with the 63-yard Fountain Bridge viaduct in view adjacent to the former single line halt of Fountain Bridge (6miles-32chains), west of Machen. Sadly the whole permanent way network between Fleur-de-lis, Caerphilly and Machen was taken out of use in 1964 but TfW in their proposals, my reopen part of the railway alignment for their new passenger network following 2021. I’m uploading my Fountain Bridge record for further interest.
