LPPC DSL BW 0985 
 This is another scene where, if it wasn’t for a diesel loco, the shot could have been taken in steam days, with a fine array of GW drop-arm semaphores on view. One of the very competent, South Wales English Electric Type 3 Class 37s (possibly 37 217) negotiates the trackwork approaching Radyr station, prior to heading off up the valley towards Pontypridd.
