Was the line a private spur to serve that quarry?
The quarry shut so therefore so did the tramway.
The track looked in good condition , I am surprised there had been nothing run down there for six years.

Thanks for the feedback.
THe line was closed 6 years prior to the trip. I had permission from its caretaker at the time to do the run.
Top speed of these cars is around the 30-40mph mark.
If you like the idea do a google search - NARCOA if you are in the States, ASSCO if you are in Australia
