This former railway line branched off at Hirwaun bound for the limestone quarry at penderyn a couple of miles to the north. Long disused, it has been converted into a cycling and walking trail by Brecon Beacons National Park Authority. The railway extended for short period beyond Penderyn all the way up to Ystradfellte Reservoir to serve the construction of the dam.
