Druid 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Our old station. Once the bustling heart of the village, now a peaceful and beautiful way up to the along the old line.

This is what it looks like on the way up from the village.

@afallen Ynysddu in the Sirhowy Valley.

@druid looks like a beautiful part of the world. 😍

@druid

Beeching had a devastating impact across Wales 😢

@TCMuffin Shocking isn't it. I often wonder what my village (and the rest of the country) would be like now if the cuts had never happened.

@druid

Beeching was savage! He was physicist who had no understanding of the long-term social costs of his cuts and the effect on the environment through more road transport and congestion 🤬

This is an interesting film…

@TCMuffin @druid yes. Agreed. But tbf he had a devastating effect on the entire country - and wanted to go even further. I spit when I hear his name.
