A fair number of passengers waiting to board the 08.25 arrival at Ebbw Vale Parkway on 2 September 2010, that will form the 08.31 service to Cardiff - which, having taken the photograph, I then rushed to join! On leaving the branch for the run along the South Wales main line to Cardiff Central it was obvious the two car unit 150260 was near 95% full, mainly with leisure travellers.

Passengers along the Ebbw Vale line will benefit from more rail services in the future as Network Rail starts work to transform the line between Newport and Ebbw Vale. Funded by Blaenau Gwent Council, supported by a loan from the Welsh Government, the £70m investment includes laying new track which will allow a new hourly passenger service between Ebbw Vale Town and Newport. Brand new platforms will also be installed at Llanhilleth and Newbridge - making the stations fully accessible for the first time.
