Whistle Inn

The Blaenavon Express: the P&B used to have only one operating steam engine, with BROOKFIELD emblazoned on its tanks IIRC. It is pushing its single coach up to the later location of Whistle Inn halt in September 1991. The 'landscaped' background looks distinctly bleak; as viewers of the TV programme 'Time Team' will know, it contains a buried viaduct.
