Tondu Semaphores

66187 powers up the Ogmore Vale extension line en route to Tondu Junction on the 6O32 Margam to Llanwern sidings, seen amongst the surviving semaphore signals at Tondu. The train will run round the Garw loop and then head south on the Maesteg line to Bridgend to join the main South Wales line.

 

Freight workings at Tondu are rarely seen but on occasions freight is diverted via Tondu when engineering work is carried out on the main South Wales line between Bridgend and Margam. Given my penchant for semaphores and signal boxes I was delighted to capture this working.
