Class 769 swansong. Nearing the end of the class's very short career in the Welsh Valleys, 769445 approaches Pontlottyn on 3 May 2023 with the 2R18 16:03 Penarth to Rhymney Transport for Wales service. These former Class 319 EMUs were only ever intended as a stop gap, but were late into service, and plagued with reliability issues. However, at least the Welsh ones actually made it into traffic, which is more than the GWR ones ever did! |
