Railway Bridge, through trees
This bridge formed part of the branch line that went from Gwaun Cae Gurwen to Abernant Collieries. Two bridges were built to serve each direction but amazingly only the down-valley junction bridge was ever used - no tracks were laid on this bridge and the land just beyond the viaduct has since been taken over as a private garden.

Gwaun Cae Gurwen Level Crossing
At the time of this photograph, 35 years ago, heavy wooden gates were still in use at this level crossing in Gwaun Cae Gurwen used by coal trains. The line was disused, but never officially closed, for many years until 2009 when it reopened for trains serving an open-cast mine. In the background in this view a South Wales bus heads towards Pontardawe and Swansea.

Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen level crossing
You could be forgiven for thinking that bringing out the bunting at this level crossing is a celebration of the line's recent resumption of activity.
However, this is actually how this level crossing works at present, with two railway engineers dropping stop signs on the road and then holding two strings of bunting across the road to prevent cars from crossing as the train traverses the road!
The lights don't currently work and there have been some recent local worries about such a busy road not having gates.
