Fenway Park Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 A superb book from Lightmoor Press detailing the history of this mineral railway and the docks. The author includes the history of the various tramways as well as the South Wales Mineral Railway with its Ynysmaerdy incline in Briton Ferry and Glyncorrwg collieries. Volume 1 covers the period up to 1907 when the GWR in effect took control as well as the Cooke USA 0-8-2 tanks. Volume 2 will cover the remaining years to closure and the docks. Excellent research and photos. Hopefully Lightmoor Press can produce a similar volume on the Rhondda and Swansea Bay Railway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
