Description
We start our story up at Parc Slip, on the line between Margam Yard and Tondu ( closed a few years ago). Class 37/56 shunt a few wagons to form their train down to the yard. Later we're in the fields opposite Margam to record even more TRANSRAL movements and our old friend the iron ore to Llanwern
