The Chepstow Flyer at Cardiff Central.   Chepstow International.

The history.   And the reality today. Now distribution.

The Bell Hanger – rear entrance.   The Bell Hanger – front entrance.

Not sure what sort of naval gun this is?   The Coach & Horses – a real Real Ale pub.
IMG_7938   IMG_7939
A reason to go back?   The bar of the Coach & Horses.

Not quite my train.   The Second Severn crossing in the distance.

The car park, no use if you are on the train.   The approach.

The closer approach.   The entrance.

Bedwas – when it’s early and dark.   Caerphilly Bus Station – looking surprising good.
IMG_7891   IMG_7895
Cardiff Central and in the distance Brains Brewery.   Cardiff Central, great for Engine spotting.

I’m now in England.   Which has history too.
IMG_7902   IMG_7903
Wetherspoon. Cheaper food and drinks.   The Knights Templar.
IMG_7905   IMG_7906
Isambard Kingdom Brunel.   To the Fire Fighter who have fallen in the line of duty.
IMG_7910   IMG_7911
Wetherspoon – The Commercial Rooms.   And inside The Commercial Rooms.
