Teagues Bridge Lane, Trench
A lot of change has taken place here since this 1963 photograph. All the buildings in the foreground have gone, (also the old Bridge Inn which was just out of shot to the left) to be replaced by modern houses. And the road, which had just been widened here, is now called Wombridge Road. Note the complete absence of traffic.

Teagues Bridge, Trench, Shropshire
This photograph shows the remains of one of the original bridges over the Shropshire High Level canal system that once existed in this area. The lane passing over the bridge was called Teagues Bridge Lane, but is now a motor road and renamed Wombridge Road in about 1965. The boats using this canal were tub boats, about 20ft x 6ft 3ins in dimension, and they worked in 'gangs' of four, carrying coal. Travelling west, the loaded boats would then work down the Trench inclined plane, at the foot of which the coal was trans-shipped into narrow boats. The area of this photograph is now completely built over with modern housing.

Relaid Railway Track, Trench Crossing
The rail line to the new Donnington freight depot has now been relaid and is due to come into full use again in late April or early May 2009. The track was lifted in 1999 when the link to the Army Depot at Donnington was declared redundant.
See the line in the early 60's shortly after the through line to Stafford was closed.Image

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...
