THE CANAL AND RAILWAY BEING REPLACED NORTH OF MORRISTON: 1960’S

Dominic Byrne sent another photo to me, this one of lorries and heavy plant removing the railway line which appeared in his  previous photo of the canal from Ynysforgan Railway Aqueduct.  This one was obviously taken on a beautiful drying day for the washing possibly from a neighbouring house. I think we are looking north this time with what looks like a canal bridge to the left of the railway bridge. But I am none too sure apart from the fact that a lot of historical structures are about to be lost.

Please, please give  me any information you might have on this one.
