MY favourite station must be Bridgend. My cousin, a real railway enthusiast, once told me that there used to some of Brunel's original line (the wider gauge) at one of the sidings at Bridgend.

Last time I visited, about three or four years ago, I stood on the down platform recalling my departure to England in 1961 when a female voice came over the tanoy (if you can imagine Gladys from Hi Di Hi) which said "Please do not leave any baggage or parcels unattended as the security people will have to take them away or blow 'em up!"
