I am trying to find out about the early use of the Black boy line.
I suspect the Black boy fed onto timber coal drops probably at the current site.
I am trying to produce a timeline from about 1800 to the present.
I am trying to model in N gauge Cheapside 1850, Coal drops functioning, and some rope hauled Incline.
The Black boy Incline track was probably available well beyond 1900.
The last recorded use that I know of was as a diversion in 1880.
Any help suggestions would be appreciated, I am currently building coal trucks and dandy cart out of tinplate.
