Rhymney Railway sign, Senghenydd

Image: © Martin Tester Taken: 13 Apr 1968

This weight-limit sign, attached to a bridge over the railway line at Senghenydd, was photographed during a photo-stop on a railtour (Image). Notice how all the letters have been picked out in white paint - except the 2 instances of 'Rhymney'! The Rhymney Railway was amalgamated with the GWR during 1922 & so hadn't existed for 46 years.
