Description
20 years ago I spent a couple of days chasing top and tale 37s with Virgin Red stock, on the route from Cardiff Central to Caerphilly and Ystrad Mynach.
Enjoy the thrash as drivers who knew me gave a good blast departing the various stations. Also included a couple of freight movements from those busier times.
