Wolverhampton Steel Terminal is a small intermodal depot in the city of Wolverhampton, England. The depot is served by a spur of the Rugby-Birmingham-Stafford Line - the main line through the West Midlands. It can also be accessed by road, which makes it a useful point for transferring steel between road and rail transport. The terminal is run by rail freight company DBS(I) ==Location== The depot is located to the east of the city centre in a mainly industrial area. In rail terms, the depot is situated south of Wolverhampton railway station, and to the north of Coseley railway station. Apart from Wolverhampton South Junction to Walsall, it is the only divergence from the main line between the two stations. It is only accessible from the Birmingham side. Trains running to the terminal from the north would theoretically need to stop and reverse onto the spur, but in practice would almost certainly divert via Bescot and come back onto the line through a series of junctions near Birmingham. The depot is built adjacent to the trackbed of the Birmingham Snow Hill-Wolverhampton Low Level Line, which closed in 1972, and on the site of the former Walsall Street goods depot of the Great Western Railway. It was opened as a steel terminal in 1966. 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「Wolverhampton Steel Terminal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
