Description
20 years ago this month I travelled from Swansea via the Vale of Glamorgan Line all the way to Paddington. In the days when windows could be opened I recorded most of the journey on video, with the benefit of a good mic. and wind soc. I've identified most of the stops, shown running times, so enjoy the show and " Take a look"
