I'll include this in the next newsletter to see if we get a response from the wider membership, but meantime does anybody know the location of the Ebbw carriage sidings? I was born and brought up in Ebbw Vale and don't recall ever seeing them - tho' I was only 3 in 1959!

Would this be referring to the carriage sidings at Ebbw Junction just to the west of the loco shed on the North side of the main line?
