This is an official LNWR track plan showing the interchange sidings and the line down to the various Iron works. The need for a small 0-4-0 tank loco was the presence of a weighbridge just after the line crosses the main road and this had a weight limit. The only change I have made to the track plan is to add in another siding parallel to the one marked for the Lilleshall Company. This will allow me more shunting movements on the layout.

Hi Dave, fascinating stuff ! Are you planning to model down to the Iron Works. I have a photo taken from over the canal towards a derelict works - probably early 50's - and shows an nearly empty canal and overgrown sidings. Can't remember where from but may have been from the Geograph website. You have probably seen this before but can send if not. Photos of the works seem pretty rare.

 

Pete.
