Description
7th January 33 years ago Nick and I spent most of the day at Cardiff Central. With so many coal movements, it was difficult keeping up with all the action. No "Realtime Trains" back in the 90s ! I've included almost all the interesting trains, including HST and TPO as well as memories of units up the Valleys
