The area
around the old Rutland Street Terminus has been completely redeveloped.
New roads, car parks, garages and a leisure centre have replaced old
terraced houses, railway lines and the Victoria Station.
The photographs
of this area were taken on July 20th 1995.
The images
above display two different views of the area around the old Rutland
Street Terminus. The picture on the left looks down the route the Mumbles
Train took on its way to the Mumbles Pier Station.
