Foxfield Colliery books?

Hi all,

 

a plea for help/information if possible. I've got a strong interest in both the Telford Steam Railway and Foxfield Railway preserved lines and their history. I've built up a decent little library about the TSR, but have little with regards to the Foxfield.

 

In fact, the only book I've currently got is the 'Cheadle Collieries and their Railways' by Allan C. Baker. I've not managed to find anything on the Oakwood Press books (unless I've missed anything). 

 

Does anyone have some 'must haves' with regards to this cracking little line?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Chris

A FOXFIELD ALBUM was published in 1978 by John Williams. A modest little paperback comprising well-captioned pictures of the line and stock in early preservation days.

I bought a copy on a visit around that time - it conveys something of the character of the line as first adopted by the preservationists.
