Vintage Trains' Birmingham to Cardiff railtour was worked top-and-tail with Castle-class No. 7029 Clun Castle and class 47 No. 47773, with the empty stock being taken to Pengam Sidings. Here, the train's two locomotives come face-to-face as the castle reverses past to where it will be serviced on the branch to Tidal Sidings.
