Glyn Tunnel
Glyn Tunnel
Eastern portal of the 280yd, single track Glyn tunnel on the former GW line between Hafodyrynys and Crumlin Jcn, photographed in 1980. When the photo was taken the western portal had already been buried. Subsequently, this end has also been infilled and buried beneath a whole lot of landscaping - which might excuse the poor quality of the photo, taken in early evening and a lot of Welsh weather!
