Nope! I believe the last train from Onllwyn was 14/06/22. Nant Helen, where the coal came from, was shut in 2021 so the stockpiled was obviously being removed between 2021 and the final train.Is the Onllwyn washery even operational? The Global Centre for Rail Excellence bought the site back in 2022 so I doubt if the washery is still in use. I assume the coal from Aberpergwm must be washed somewhere but its own washery was dismantled when British Coal closed the mine so quite where that's happening is a bit of a mystery.
Maybe they're exporting the coal unwashed.
