Unfortunately, that was the terminal station on the Llynvi and Ogmore Railway, but after Blackmill, we need to take the line of the Ely Valley Railway via its connecting line.
At this moment in time, I really do need to take break as I nearly "nodded off" whilst typing the current very long journey preamble.....

OBSERVATION
This particular journey is a very long one and there are still 86 closed stations still to be named, so I wonder if it will be completed before Christmas....
