The line into the Telford Railfreight Terminal
The terminal was opened in 2009, after a 7 or 8 year gestation period, and aimed to provide railfreight handling facilities for the industrial businesses of Telford, and the nearby (MOD-operated) Defence Storage and Distribution Agency. However, maybe it's not been very busy recently, as there's now a cat sitting on the line...
