Opening of the South Wales Extension Railway, to Milford Haven, 1856. Creator: Ebenezer Landells
Opening of the South Wales Extension Railway, to Milford Haven, 1856. View of the Railway Terminus at Neyland, with the huts of the Montgomery, North Gloucester, and Monmouthshire Militia. This remote harbour, 285 miles from the metropolis, has, within the last few days, been connected therewith by railway; by means of which it may be reached in nine hours...The terminus almost faces the Royal Pembroke Dockyard...Great, indeed, will. be the importance of the South Wales Railway extension...should the expectation of its shareholders and directors prove well founded; for it is anticipated that it will elevate Milford from being simply a harbour of refuge to the position of an extensive depot for maritime commerce...It may be entered by the largest vessel at almost any period of the tide, and is believed to be capable of affording secure anchorage for the fleets of the entire world...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
