Entrance gate to Cae Perllan allotments
The sign on the gate states No Tresspassing. I resisted the temptation to leave a "No misspelt signs" sign next to it. A similar gate and sign guard a second entrance on the other side of the path. If you wish to get in to the allotments, here's how http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1441427

Gaer Junction, Newport
Viewed from Cardiff Road looking towards Hillfield Tunnel. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1441421
This is part of the South Wales main line, between Newport and Cardiff. Trains have used this route since 1850, the year of the opening of the line by the South Wales Railway. It became a junction in 1879 when lines through a tunnel from Park Junction gave access to Newport High Street station for the Western Valley Line.
Currently the line to Park Junction (near the middle left of the view) is not suitable for passenger services, so only occasional freight trains now use that route. Until the track is improved, passengers from Newport wishing to use the reopened Ebbw Vale Railway must either travel by car or bus to Rogerstone station on the western edge of Newport, or travel by train via Cardiff. That rail journey would be about 40 kilometres long, in contrast with about 4 kilometres if a direct route to Rogerstone were available.
