little remains of the former line save for a section of trackbed in the clydach gorge between brynmawr and llanfoist has been converted into a long-distance cycleway. the cutting in which beaufort station was situated has been infilled and the line from trevil onwards has been obliterated by the a465 heads of the valleys road. the road, on which construction began soon after the closure of the ebbw vale branch on 2 november 1959, follows the former alignment adjacent to the site of the ebbw vale junction signal box, through to the road bridge leading to dukestown cemetery at tredegar. the road then diverges and rejoins the railway line at the point where the nantybwch platforms were situated. a roundabout has taken the place of rhymney bridge station from where the road continues towards dowlais where the station site has been redeveloped.
