Train snowed in, Wales in the winter of 1947
A train and locomotive brought to a standstill by snow drifts on the line between Merthyr and Abergavenny following the renewed blizzards of early March during one of the coldest recorded winters in Britain. The snow brought vital coal transport to a halt, particularly in the hills and mining valleys of South Wales where great lines of mineral trucks were unable to leave the pithead and miners were unable to get to work through the deep drifts
