The equipment from the war then provided the starting points for applications throughout any industry where large, heavy or bulky items needed to be moved. Now located adjacent to the Apedale Valley Country park (Near Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, UK) - the Moseley Railway Trust has constructed and operates the Apedale Valley Light Railway.
