Bromborough dock railway

Recommended Posts

Hi just wondering if anyone has any information and pictures of the port sunlight to bromborough dock branch? I remember the line being there and remember seeing the line disconnected and lifted when I was very young but not sure what year it closed any why. The route is still there as a cycle path but most of the dock has been completely changed.

Thanks Marc

Marc, you could do worse than get hold of a copy of "The Railways of Port Sunlight and Bromborough Dock" by Oakwood Press - don't know if it's still in print.  It has lots of interesting history, photos and maps.  I remember the system well, both when it was in use, and later lifting some of the track for re-use at Steamport.  BTW the 502 is back in the area - under restoration at Burscough airfield.

Cheers,

Ray.
