16th September 1978
Vehicle: 50664 Set: C600
The Central Wales Line used to be operated with pairs of class 120 "Cross Country" motor coaches fitted with headlights (at a time this was unusual in Britain) because of the numerous level crossing on the line. The photo was taken on a circular "Central Wales roundabout" ticket which allowed one to travel from London to Swansea, Shrewsbury (via the Central Wales) and back to London (or v.v) for a bargain fare. I imagine this was taken (at Llanwrtyd Wells on September 16, 1978, presumably 50664 + 50702) while waiting for another train to cross. The line, from Llanelli to Craven Arms, is now known as the Heart of Wales line. Jeremy Chapter.

30th June 1986
Vehicle: 51799 Set: C806
I like this one, even though it's the end of the roll. A class 101 Metro Cammell DMU (C806, presumably 51799) peeks out from behind the station building at Llanwrtyd Wells on 30th June 1986. The DMU was on a Swansea to Shrewsbury service on the Heart of Wales line. It had failed and we were waiting to be rescued. I can't remember how long we were stuck here, but help eventually arrived in the shape of a class 25, which dragged us all the way to Shrewsbury. Jonathan Hazan.
