Sugar Loaf Halt: Platform view south at Sugar Loaf Halt in April 2012. The station is in a deep cutting with 24 steps to reach road level. Despite its remote location it has been provided with one of the C.I.S. displays which are currently being rolled out at stations along the Heart of Wales line. See image [[43677]]
