Harwick Branch Line (RWS)

The Harwick Branch Line was a proposed branch line that was intended to run from Arlesburgh West up to Harwick and back, but the plan was later scrapped.

The Railway Series
The Little Western was originally intended to reach Harwick; however, by the time Arlesburgh West was reached in 1916, it was found there was no longer need for further a extension and it was dropped. In the 1940s, a rail link between Arlesburgh and Harwick was again proposed, but yet again deemed unnecessary, for it was found that Sodor Roadways could provide adequate transport both for stores and personnel.
