View NE, towards Morriston and Llansamlet, taken from an Up train on the South Wales main line near Landore. Over to the left is the River Tawe. [This was not an easy location to pin-point, so is open to correction, but note the milepost 213.III and the abandoned railway track underneath, which I believe had been a loop, part of the separate ex-Midland Railway complex.]
