INTRODUCTION
THE Kinver Light Railway, built with certain railway features but popularly known as the Kinver trams ', operated successfully from 1901 until February 1930. This book is produced to commemorate the line in the 50th year since its closure. It is not intended as a concise history, since most of the operational details are well documented in other published works, but as a means of presenting hitherto unpublished photographs of aspects of the service, and to record certain features which have only recently been destroyed.
Modern photographs are also included to demonstrate the length of time that some features of the line, if left undisturbed, can still be discerned.
Part of the railway ' ran through private land, and in order that interested investigators can trace the course of the permanent way, various vantage points are listed in an appendix. The use of this should make it possible to gain a complete picture of the railway and to imagine the pleasant run enjoyed by the many thousands of people who used the line for a day out in the country.
It is unfortunate that so little remains of the permanent way between Stewponey and Kinver. Could this part of the line have been preserved and in use today, it would be a tremendous and viable public attraction.
