Literary Quotations & Historical Citations
"All three parallel valleys of the Llynvi, Garw and Ogmore are much the same in physical character: the lower reaches are wooded and not unattractive, but as the railway climbs on ever-steepening grades, the hills on either hand grow barer and closer together, while in all respects the scene becomes more sombre, with the terraced, slate-roofed colliery towns and the road, railway and river all struggling for space in the narrowing defiles."
— 1955 July, D. S. Barrie, “Railways of the Bridgend District”, in Railway Magazine, page 449:
"Through the thickly wooded and precipitous slopes on either side of the line there are one or two short rock tunnels."
— 1961 October, 'Voyageur', “The Cockermouth, Keswick and Penrith Railway”, in Trains Illustrated, page 601:
"One of the loveliest rivers in Wales, the Teifi, loops and swirls down to Llanybyther through a lush valley hemmed in by range upon range of wooded hills."
