A 2018 rail tour visiting South Wales, mostly freight-only lines. This one is the former Vale of Neath Railway, which is heavily wooded in nature. The milepost is faded but there are three dots underneath the '37' denoting '¾'. It measures 37¾ miles from Pontypool & New Inn station via the Crumlin viaduct and Aberdare - a railway route long since mostly consigned to history.
