AT THE core of this interesting booklet are 64 previously unpublished monochrome pictures by Vernon Parry taken during the final days of steam over the Aberystwyth to Carmarthen line around the Lampeter area and, in particular, the last trains on the branch to Aberayron (as it was at the time, now spelt Abereraeron) which closed on April 2, 1965.
The pictures, reflecting the last operations over a rural railway in Cardiganshire (now Ceredigion) and Carmarthenshire are supplemented by text drawn from notes made by the photographer, who clearly knew the locality and its people well – notably the railwaymen themselves, since footplate and brake van rides feature as part of his travels to appropriate locations.
