Cannock Mineral Railway

Industrials

The Cannock Mineral Railway was a British railway company that built a line from Cannock in Staffordshire, England, to join the London and North Western Railway at Rugeley. The company had originally been conceived and authorised as the Derbyshire, Staffordshire and Worcestershire Junction Railway, intended to connect Dudley and Uttoxeter, but proved hopelessly undercapitalised and badly managed, and never achieved that larger ambition.
