Abermain Colliery Railway Coal Railway (Australia)


The Abermain Colliery Railway
This line was built by the Abermain Collieries Limited to move coal from Abermain Nos 1, 2 and 3 collieries. It left the Aberdare Railway in the yard at Abermain.
Abermain Collieries Limited provided transport for its miners between the collieries using steam trams.

On 10 April 1964, the last colliery (Abermain No 2) ceased production, and the line was closed. The track between Neath and Abermain was used for storage purposes at later times, until the tracks were lifted in the mid 1970s.
