Description
In April 2023 I spent the final week recording the last movements of class 150s on the line from Pontypridd to Treherbert. I've listed the stations in order departing Ponty for Treherbert. Some locations were without car parks nearby and I felt rather conspicuous with my video camera alone on some of the platforms. Not many rail enthusiasts visit non freight lines, this being one of them. Hopefully engineering work will be of interest now, as the line is upgraded by TfW until 2024. I don't think I'll take the bus alternative !
