Trackbed, Swindon and Highworth Light Railway, Stanton Park, Swindon (1)
The S&HLR was never one of the stellar performers in the railway firmament. It went bust before a wheel turned and was sold to the Great Western Railway who managed to get it going in 1883. It soldiered on until 1962 when the last train ran over its metals. For a potted history please see here Link
