This print takes us back in time to the year 1864, capturing a significant moment in history - the inauguration of the Swansea and Mumbles Railway.

In this snapshot frozen by time, we witness a bustling street scene filled with men and women eagerly awaiting their turn to embark on an extraordinary journey. The horse-drawn train stands proudly at its starting point while passengers gather around it with anticipation gleaming in their eyes.
