This railway line is still considered in use, though practically a lot of work would be needed to bring it back into service (work that's underway since the picture was taken). Up until the early 1990s, coal trains would be run up from Betws Colliery near Ammanford to the washeries that still ran here. When the washeries closed, the railway line was left to decay.
