Tew Valley Railway

The Tew Valley Railway was formed out of the demand for a railway service connecting a number of towns in the Tew Valley. The line connected Kyle of Findal in the East to Southport in the south. The line also connected the Eastern Counties Railway to the Great Southern Railway of Etorea.
  Surveying for the route of the line started in 1897, with the line between Kyle of Findal and Venath being completed by 1901 when the railway opened. The entire line was not completed until November 1906 by which point the company had been operating trains for half a decade. All locomotives used on the line were built by Peckett & Sons in Bristol, England with the first two being 0-4-0 side tanks which were rare for the firm to build. Even rarer was the 2-4-2 side tank that arrived in 1909 to run goods trains. All locomotives were named after the children of the line's owner. A fourth locomotive that was ordered for the line arrived in 1914 but it was never used as it was requisitioned by the Railway Operating Division, the locomotive was ultimately destroyed in Belgium in 1916.
  The line was engineered by the Captain Arthur Crawford, he would later go on to have a role in or manage thirty light railway companies across Etorea. The Tew Valley Railway was short, being only six stations for public use and one extra for use by the Etorean National Postal Company (note - name subject to change, remove note later). The majority of the traffic on the line was goods services as three farms were located near to the railway. These farmsprovided the majority of the business of the line, conveying both farm equipment and produce for the market. Due to the land, however, livestock was not kept so no such trains ran. This was the main souce of income for the company with passenger services being operated all year round.
  The railway later started experiencing financial troubles leading to the sale of the line to the Etorean National Railways. Two of the three engines were immediately sold for scrap with №3 being retained for demolitions trains, later being sold to A. C. Papers for their internal railway at their papermill. Today the line is served by a one coach railbus due to the low traffic of the line, goods services remain with one train in each direction per week pulled by a small battery - electric locomotive.
