For those who are not railway employees, or without a pass, many railway views can only be taken from trains, or from far away, as here. This is a view from Cardiff Road across the trackbed of a disused industrial railway line towards the South Wales main line adjacent to Alexandra Dock Junction. Old maps show this area full of railway lines and sidings, most now gone.
