Description
Despite a large downturn in freight traffic in recent years, Cardiff Central still gets a good and mixed amount of freight traffic passing through, some of which are seen here whilst I was on my travels. In order we see:

1: 66061 passing through with a short steel train from Margam - Round Oak
2: 66100 sounding fantastic working tanktainers/steel wagons from Margam - Hartlepool Docks
3: 56094 thrashing through working a log train from Baglan Bay - Chirk
4: 66063 TnT 60024 working a steel train from Margam - Round Oak

Enjoy!
