|
Roedd llawer o bobl yn cael eu cyfologi ar waith mechanyddol, ymarferol rhedeg y rheilffyrdd. Gyrrwr Trên oedd y swydd a restrwyd amlaf o bell ffordd fel galwedigaeth yng nghyfrifiad 1891. Un stryd gyda llawer iawn o yrwyr trenau oedd Stryd Siarl (Charles Street), Aberhonddu. Daeth rhai i fyw yn y dref o gryn bellter -- enghraifft o sut yr effeithiodd y rheilffyrdd ar y boblogaeth leol. |
