Class 14 No D9533 propels empties milk tanks for Marshfield at Rumney Bridge, Cardiff on 13th August 1965.

Access to the yard was via a ground frame, at least after the signal box closed for MAS in about 1965, with no ground signals as the movements were hand signalled by the train's guard, and the tanks were, prior to 1972 when the trailing crossover was removed, propelled back to Cardiff to be attached to the up Whitland-Kensington later in the day. A Brake Van was used until there was a single manning agreement; authority was provided by the Sectional Appendix. After the removal of the crossover, the train proceeded to Newport to run around and haul the tanks back to Cardiff.
