The Taff Bargoed Valley is a river valley near Pontypridd in South Wales, and lies off the Abercynon roundabout on the A470 road, and is approximately 14 miles from Cardiff. The main settlements are Nelson, Edwardsville, Quakers Yard, Treharris, Trelewis, and Bedlinog. The valley is situated where the three County Boroughs of Caerphilly, Rhondda Cynon Taff, and Merthyr Tydfil meet.

Two photos on the River Taff just south of Pontypridd. Taken during a walk from Taff's Well to Pontypridd, mainly on the trackbeds of former railways.
One shot is of a footbridge across the river and the other is looking northwards from the bridge. This once heavily polluted river in a highly industrialised area is now the habitat of fish, insects and birds.

Gull flying through the reflected sun off the River Taff in Cardiff. I was above the bird on the Millennium Stadium Boardwalk when I took this. I did no processing of the image other than a crop and a touch of noise reduction.

37697 is approaching Ocean & Taff Merthyr Junction with a set of 14 empty MDV's from Taff Merthyr colliery to Nelson East Sidings.
As well as the train, the background illustrates valley life just before the coal industry was torpedoed. An ex-GWR ventilated van body serves as a blue painted shed, further up the track a Reliant van is tucked into the hill side, the gardens slope down and catch the sun, a number of greenhouses are in use probably growing fruit, flowers or a vine. The washing is drying on this mild and sunny Saturday.
37697 was built as D6943 at English Electric, it entered service new to Cardiff Canton 17/09/1964. Under TOPS it became 37243, in 1986 it was rebuilt as a 37/5 and numbered 37697. The loco was withdrawn 01/04/1999 and cut at C. F. Booth (Rotherham) in March 2006.
