| Dyffryn(Cardiff Railway Co.) Viaduct, Rhydfelin. It is said that only one train ever ran over this viaduct because of actions taken by the Taff Vale Railway to deny the Cardiff Railway a junction at Treforest. |

This one is in the Rogerstone area and is nowhere near Ebbw Vale but i can't definitely say exactly where it is. For the present it should be regarded as unlocated. |

This is a view looking north up the Taff Vale with the Upper Boat electric power station in the center of view. The map Reference of centre of shot is ST 09984 87083 The river is the River Taff. Treforest Industrial Estate is yet to be developed. The photo was a little further from Ebbw Vale than I had first thought. I shall enter all the other features shortly. There are a number of photos of the Treforest/Upper Boat Power Station including WPW029857. This is a confirmed identification. I have gone through a lean period without any new identifications so allow me to be pleased at this one. Smiley face. |
