View northward, towards Moat Lane Junction: ex-Cambrian Railways Moat Lane - Builth - Three Cocks line. Back in 1949, ex-Cambrian or ex-GW 0-6-0's worked most of the traffic on this line, which was closed on 31/12/62 although goods traffic continued as far as Llanidloes until 4/5/64. No. 2483 is a GW 'Dean Goods' 0-6-0 (built 5/1896, withdrawn 9/52).
