Description
Final part of Coal Grinder from GCG to Briton Ferry. I think some coal dust got onto the recording heads as there is slight sound breakup ( not your pc ) Also I was there when the 56 brought the 26 to Barry. I was in the cab of the 73 as it was too dark to be in the yard so only a brief look at the loco tucked away for the night
