Surprisingly much is still running.
The through routes from Neath to Aberdare, Maesteg to Treherbert, and Quaker's Yard to Pontypool are long gone.
Not many would want to travel from Maesteg to the Rhondda rather than Bridgend. Equally, not many would go from Quaker's Yard to Pontypool in preference to Cardiff.
Neath to Aberdare might theoretically be a runner. Part of the line up the Neath Valley still exists and will be needed to feed the GCRE at Onllwyn.

Interesting to consider what's still there, what was lost, and of those lines lost, which have come back. Which of the others lost and not regained hurts the most?
