Wikipedia, Sept. 1, 2009 (The Swansea and Mumbles Railway was the world's first passenger railway service located in Swansea, Wales. It later moved from horse power to steam locomotion, and finally converted to electric trams, before closing in January 1960; In 1804 the British Parliament approved the laying of a railway line between Swansea and Oystermouth in South Wales; at this stage, the railway was known as the Oystermouth Railway [no publs in LC database] It later became the Swansea and Mumbles Railway, but in common parlance its name was the Mumbles Train)
