The concrete waste in the foreground at one time used to be a large rail marshaling yard to serve nearby coal yards and coal washery. Today, only a single railway line runs through the yard - recently refurbished for a reason that seems now to have vanished as the proposed coal treatment centre to be built here is no longer being built. in the distance, part of the oval of the horse trotting track can be seen.
