Wow - 24 years! Slightly more than a short time!


It's a pity that it hasn't found a new role as a museum of the once
huge, sprawling network of local dock railways.


What would such a museum contain? "Here's is a map of this branch... and
there is a map of that branch... and there is a map of the other branch"


No, the history of them, how they formed the life-blood of the whole dock
system, and what happened to them after the docks closed. A working scale
model of a dock with its cranes and trains would be good, too.
