GW/WR Pannier Tank on Rhos Colliery branch, at Penybanc Colliery, near Pantyfynnon
View SE from the A483 road, west of Pantyfynnon on the Llandilo - Pontadulais/Llanelly (ex-GW&LNW) section of the Central Wales Line. The apparently wooded hill on the right has since disappeared, as it was a colliery tip since landscaped. In the distance are the 900-1,000 ft. mountains on the far side of the River Loughor, Mynydd Bettws and Graig fawr. The locomotive is 'modern' GW-design '1600' class 0-6-0T No. 1655 (built 1/55, withdrawn 7/65).

Gateway to Ammanford
A new installation on the A483 as it enters Ammanford from the south. The existing welcome sign can be seen to the right of shot.
The three metal pigs heading into town are actually "Twrch Trwyth" - wild boars - which are an adopted symbol of the Amman Valley.
