Ammanford (GW) railway station (site), Carmarthenshire
Opened in 1840 as Cross Inn by the "Llanelly Railway" on the line from Pantyffynnon to Brynamman, this station closed in 1958. The station name had changed to Ammanford in 1883.
View NE towards the former Ammanford Colliery Halt and Brynamman from a public crossing. The line was only used by freight trains when this image was taken. The current Ammanford station is a short distance away on the Central Wales Line.

Snow covered railway out of Ammanford
This formerly disused mineral line is used to transfer coal from a reopened mine near Tairgwaith. Looks like the train isn't running today though.
Also in shot are the remains of the platform to the left of the track from when Ammanford Station was here, and the practice tower at the fire station in the distance.

Bridge over Amman river, joining Ammanford and Betws
At the end of a street called Quay St, near the centre of a town called Ammanford would you expect to find a Quay or a Ford ? Wrong - it's a bridge.

Miners' Memorial, Ammanford
This memorial by Howard Bowcott was commissioned in memory of the hundreds of miners who lost their lives in pit disasters or accidents when the coal industry was the major employer in this area. It is composed of layers of slate and sandstone to represent the coalseams; the names of the dead are engraved around it. It was erected in 2006 at the bottom of Quay Street, a busy shopping precinct.
