Walking the Gwendraeth Valley line

[Fenchurch SP]

The last train was in 1996 and most of the track is still there but is also a public footpath.
Don't see much of the railway in the first part but in the others I've included some captions with limited historical information. I would have liked to have gone more in depth and maybe also explored more of the colliery sites but I was only in the area for a couple of days and I hadn't done much prior research so I missed some opportunities.

Amazing to see how overgrown it is now! It's local to me and I've walked it too over the years. As well as the Kidwelly to Cwmawr section, most of Coedbach to Burry Port is also walkable, with a tarred path.

I remember triple 03s and later the 08/9s on the line. Good memories!
