Description
As these two stations used to be brilliant for freight traffic, It's a great shame how now there is very little freight especially at Cardiff, on a brighter note its great so see lots of Castle class HSTs working between Cardiff and the West Country (well done GWR) I also noticed a lot of ex Anglian units now working for Trains for Wales. Filmed on 13th May.
