Trane Colliery
A Memory of Gilfach Goch.
My father was an overman at the Trane Colliery in 1955, the valley was alive at that time with lots of shops, two cinemas, two buses to Penygraig each hour and the wonderful dance hall in Tonyrefail called the Central.
Even though Gilfach Goch is really beautiful now and a lovely place to live, I still miss the community spirit of the 50s when people worked and played together. It was a wonderful place to grow up in.
