Sub-titled: including the Dowlais Central Branch
One of the most admired lines in South Wales, this route included spectacular scenery and gradients , together with numerous interesting junctions. It is no wonder that the Brecon & Merthyr Railway (B&MR) was always well-loved among enthusiasts.
The views in this album range from remote upland to collieries with bursting sidings and provide a fine window on a past era.
