LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton

Adderley Park Station: lnwr_add4478

An updated version of an 1841 map of the sidings at Adderley Park showing a layout not too dissimilar to the layout still in existence in the late 1960s. Opposite the sidings is the Britannia Railway Carriage Works owned by Messrs Brown & Marshall & company. The orange lines are the original L&BR trackwork whilst the lines in red are later additions provided by the L&NWR. The above map was provided by Russell Burridge who copied two huge 4ft x 2ft folders showing in detail the route as surveyed in 1841 by Binns & Clifford of Birmingham, and updated by F Wood of Rugby in 1863 and then by others up until circa 1875.
