Collett 0-4-2T No. 1444 (built 4/35 as 4844, renumbered 11/46, withdrawn 10/64) is working the shuttle service from Cholsey & Moulsford, which lasted until 15/6/59. General goods on the branch lasted until 13/9/65, but traffic to Wallingford Maltings (the site of the present station) continued until 1981, after which the line was taken over by the heritage Cholsey and Wallingford Railway.
