Description
I wanted to capture the local and mainline services before the continuing high rise developments adjacent to the railway obscure these views. I caught the up Cwmbargoed empties with 66015 and steel with red DB 66 passing under 2 bridges where the track is being lowered in readiness for the electrification of the mainline. Also included are maps of the area showing at number 6 the bridge location I used and engineers notes of trackworks. Note the blue dragonfly at 7.56
