List of early British railway companies : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of early British railway companies
The following list sets out to show all the railway companies set up by Acts of Parliament in the 19th century until the late 1850s. Most of them became constituent parts of the emerging main-line railway companies, often immediately after being built. Some continued as independent companies until the 1923 Grouping; a few retained that independence until 1947.〔Casserley (1968)〕 They have been listed under Scottish; and English and Welsh early railways;〔Some of the information contained in this article is taken from ''The Railway Year Book, 1912'', which set out the railways in that order. At the time the term ''Scotch'' was in use.〕〔Butt; (1995)〕 and under the later main line company which absorbed them. Each of the main line companies after the Grouping has an article listing all companies who became part of, and jointly part of, individual companies. Many of those had been in separate existence since being set up in the 19th century, and were only in 1923 losing that individuality. The list is by no means complete: in 1846 alone there were 272 railways agreed by Act of Parliament, although not all of those were built, since it was the time of the Railway Mania. In addition lines might be extensions to existing ones, but floated as a separate company to separate the risk, and to ring-fence subscriptions, or promoted by a company which was mostly financed by an existing company. An example is the Dore and Chinley Railway which was floated as a company and then adopted and largely financed by the Midland. ==Scottish early railways==
