The path followed by Route 884 of the National Cycle Network – a.k.a. The Garw Valley Community Route – crosses a bridge originally built to carry a railway line between Tondu and Blaengarw over the river. That line is long disused. It is hoped though that trains will again run along the course of much of the old line on the Garw Valley Railway (see http://garw-railway.co.uk/ ). Track remains in place on a good part of the proposed route. The photograph though was taken by one of the stretches where the track has been dismantled.
