Cymer Afan

Turning left from my previous shot see image 49912, this view looks West under the stone arch at the South end of the viaduct in the general direction of Port Talbot. Two levels can be seen on the right hand side of the valley. The upper line is a road, while the lower line is the SWMR. This branch closed in 1951 after a tunnel collapse. [Ref query 6885]
