Once there were three railway companies, a viaduct and regular coal trains passed here. Today nature is taking over. Penrhos Cutting between Caerphilly and Taffs Well.

I am not a fan of many Christmas films, but Klaus is one I will watch with enjoyment. Their portrayal of the Sami people is wonderful. Worth a watch.

1/2 A lot of positive chatter after King Charles opened the #SouthWalesMetro Taffs Well Tram-train depot last week. If people want to get under the bonet of how we got here...esp. the 2010-2015 advocacy I led, I wrote it all down...!!

Not only is it Railway 200 but it is 175 years since Cardiff Central opened. Today this station is the link in the middle of the South Wales Metro. So my final look at the lines that made up the Metro looks at a tiny bit of the GWR.

Glad to hear that there are no serious injuries at Shap. It is a testament to modern design that the train stayed upright and in one piece. Hope the driver is Ok as well, not good to hit a landslip!
