Synopsis

Butterley Company Railway Memories by Bill Nelson. In days gone by, Butterley Company owned more than a dozen collieries and iron works at Ripley and Codnor Park in Derbyshire. All were linked by over twenty miles of their own railways, with their own locomotives and rolling stock.

Using information gained from men who worked on the Butterley company’s railways, Bill Nelson describes the main features and operating practices of the lines linking the collieries and iron works.
