The Foxfield Railway

A very comprehensive set up. There's always
plenty to see
 
 
The station itself comprises the museum where you
view many engines, carriages and railwayana in
general linked to the North Staffordshire Railway

 
It is a working station with a three mile line down
to the colliery, a reminder of the importance the
North Staffordshire coal field was to the nation

 
Station movement controlled by a nicely
kept signal box

 
Yes there's usually a Hunslet or and Austerity

 
The trains kept running in those bad winter all those
years ago with rail mounted snow ploughs just like
the one above.
