SOUTH WALES
at the turn of the
century
ABERTHAW
 |
| The history of Aberthaw box is described in detail on the Photo Gallery pages, but this more recent photograph shows the curious addition of two lean-to corrugated iron sheds. Surely they weren't provided solely to accommodate the signalman's motorbike? |
 |
| Inside can be seen the array of
levers, block instruments and indicators, along with closed-circuit television
equipment to control a remote level crossing, the latest model of Baby Belling
cooker and a Woolworth's swing-lid waste-bin! Adjacent cabins are Barry and Cowbridge Road. |
