Horsehay

The Telford steam tram at the Telford Steam Railway of the Telford Horsehay Steam Trust, runs on a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge track. This follows a short circular route, part of which runs near to the lake known as Horsehay Pool. Prior to the completion of the circle after arriving near the loco shed, it paused very briefly before returning, coach first, to the starting point near the entrance. The tram and 16-seat coach were built by Alan Keef Ltd for the Telford Development Corporation, first running on Saturday 8 September 1979. The tram and coach originally ran in Telford Town Park alongside Randlay Pool, on about 300 yd (270 m) of the trackbed of the former Coalport Branch Line, on the Telford Town Tramway which was opened by the Reverend W. Awdry, who named the tram Thomas, on 9 April 1980 but did not last very long there. The tram moved to its present site in the mid-1980s. Steam trams were at one time a fairly familiar sight, as in the last years of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th century, they were used in several towns and cities in the UK. Most were eventually replaced by electric trams. The steam tram at the Telford Steam Railway, is one of the very few working examples, and quite possibly the only narrow gauge one in the UK. It is 4-wheeled and Pontie Steam Plant Ltd of Peterborough built its vertical boiler and 5+1⁄4 in (130 mm) x 10 in (250 mm) cylinder.

Coalbrookdale is a village in the Ironbridge Gorge and the Telford and Wrekin borough of Shropshire, England, containing a settlement of great significance in the history of iron ore smelting. It lies within the civil parish called the Gorge. This is where iron ore was first smelted by Abraham Darby using easily mined "coking coal". The coal was drawn from drift mines in the sides of the valley. As it contained far fewer impurities than normal coal, the iron it produced was of a superior quality. Along with many other industrial developments that were going on in other parts of the country, this discovery was a major factor in the growing industrialisation of Britain, which was to become known as the Industrial Revolution. Today, Coalbrookdale is home to the Ironbridge Institute, a partnership between the University of Birmingham and the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust offering postgraduate and professional development courses in heritage.
