The RCTS Rhymney Rail Tour at Bargoed on 18th March 1972. Class 37 D6998 is on the front of the failed DMUs (51581/59587/51585 + 51094/59425/51066). The KDH Archive.

Class 121 set C133 (W55033) is seen stood off the north end of Bargoed station in the headshunt siding. When this shot was taken the upside platform for northbound train at Bargoed had been abandoned and all trains used the down line platform only. North of Bargoed had been singled through to Rhymney as an economy measure leaving just a short stub of the down line as a headshunt where the DMU is stood. The off peak service on the Rhymney Valley line saw trains run hourly from Barry Island to Bargoed only. The final leg of the journey from Bargoed to Rhymney was thus covered by a single car DMU on alternate hours which was deemed adequate for the daytime demand. As both trains couldn't share the same short platform the Rhymney service would have to stand off until the platform was vacated by the train back down the valley. My photo depicts set C133 waiting to drop into the platform to form 2C65 the 14.20 all stations Bargoed to Rhymney as soon as the 14.15 to Cardiff has departe Adrian Nicholls.
