Passing the site of Garndiffaith Junction ? 1969
Type 3 (Class 37) locomotive with a short train of mineral wagons descends the line from Big Pit, Blaenavon. This was the former LNWR Abersychan Extension branch, which had closed to general freight as early as 1954, and had subsequently been reduced to single track.
The junction, actually on the viaduct, was with industrial lines that came up the formation where the photographer is standing, serving a number of collieries on the western side of the valley as well as, originally, the British Iron Works. The line has been adapted to form a footpath and cycleway up the valley, and this view https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4679696 is taken at almost exactly the same location.
