Are These Photographs of Durban?

The date on these slides show April 1966, which might be a tad misleading. Obviously this would have been the processing date, but all these years later I have no recollection of where I sent the film for processing. The narrow-gauge railway tracks lead me to think that this is Durban. Am I correct?

The Cape
NavBar

Although I'd been to Cape Town several times before, there was rarely the opportunity to visit sites in and around the city. However, on board Caronia there was a very active “Social Secretary”, who did organise sightseeing tours for us. I'm still going through several hundreds of slides and perhaps the numbering will help confirm this one. Somewhere in the collection is a picture of the Cecil J Rhodes memorial, and I believe this picture was taken on that trip.
