Nelson Bog Spoil Tip

On a miserable cold day in January 1991 I managed to get to this location to photograph the spoil trip. 37696 has emptied the train and will head back to Trelewis. I belive this area has since been completly landscaped. The line was still open in early 2024 for coal trains to Cwmbargoed but has since closed, like so many of the mineral lines in South Wales.
