The Lostwithiel and Fowey Railway opened in 1869 as a broad gauge railway linking the port of Fowey in Cornwall with the Cornish Main Line at Lostwithiel. Its main traffic was china clay. The Company ran into financial difficulties and closed in 1880, but the line was purchased by the Cornwall Minerals Railway and re-opened in 1895. A passenger service operated, but it was withdrawn in 1965, and the line reverted to the conveyance of china clay; it remains open for that traffic at the present day. ==Chronology== |} * 1862 Lostwithiel and Fowey Railway Act * 1869 Line opened * 1874 Cornwall Minerals Railway opens from Par to Fowey * 1880 Service suspended * 1892 Lostwithiel and Fowey Railway Company dissolved * 1895 Reopened by Cornwall Minerals Railway * 1968 Par to Fowey line closed 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lostwithiel and Fowey Railway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
