Torpantau

Two lines in one picture!

This area is short of names so probably best to call it Torpantau - but Pent - y - Rhiw station would have been central to the picture. The view looking east from almost on top of the Torpantau tunnel. The line running across the middle of the picture is the 'seven mile bank' of the Brecon and Merthyr Railway. The paler line that is close on the left but rises more to the right is the Bryn Oer Tramroad. The Talybont reservoir is just out of sight to the left.
