Two Derby high density sets arrive into Cefn On Halt from Caerphilly Tunnel (South portal) in South Wales on July 6th 1965. The halt served a local golf course and Cefn On park with exotic flora very popular with sunday trippers and ramblers. Apparently it was difficult to wave down a southbound train as there is only a short distance from the tunnel bore to the platform and drivers coming out of the dark tunnel just went sailing past! The station closed on Saturday, 27th September 1986, with a new Lisvane and Thornhill park and ride station - and acres of new housing being built further south. The area is now trashed by the M4 motorway so the tranquility of this scene is lost forever. Image by John Wiltshire. Peter Brabham Collection.

Oldbury and Langley Green station on 3rd September 1966 had a lot of railway interest. Passing through with a Birmingham Snow Hill bound train is a Derby built class 116 in green livery. The station dated from 1885 as did the branch to Oldbury (right). The GWR water tower still has a residue of water pouring from the bag which suggests that a steam loco shunting at Langley Green yard had recently had a top-up. The signal box is on the platform end and had steps to the back so that the single line token for the Oldbury branch could be exchanged (this practise continued long after passenger services ceased because the branch gave access to a chemical works), behind the box is the signalman's Raleigh moped. To the far left is the distinctive roof of Langley Green Maltings, still extant but badly burnt after a fire, the building is listed. Image taken by Peter Shoesmith. Geoff Dowling and John Whitehouse Collection.
