Grange Branch and Burslem Foundry
The Grange Branch at the small goods yard at Grange Wharf but its principal purpose had been to service the nearby Grange Colliery. A subsequent connection to the Shelton steelworks made the branch very busy even after the colliery ceased coal winding by 1918.
This 30 minute session follows the Grange Branch engine on a return trip to Grange Wharf to shunt the goods shed and to replenish coke and scrap metal staithes. You will notice the lorries playing 'chicken' with the rail traffic whilst they collect coke and scrap for Burslem Foundry. You can hop into the cab of one of them for a trip through the streets of Burslem. Vehicle seat belts were a product of the future but you will feel the need of them from time to time.
