There are two tunnels on the Brecon and Merthry Railway between Dowlais and Brecon. The 674 yd Tal-y-llyn tunnel is a single track, dead straight tunnel is now bricked up/grated so access is impossible. The eastern end, including the former Tal-y-llyn station is privately owned and inaccessible. Access is possible to the western portal, and photos can be taken through the grille. The photos shown here were taken using various settings and zoom options.
