Description:Steam train leaving Grindley Station on the Great Northern Railway Stafford-Uttoxeter line.
The Stafford-Uttoxeter line opened in December 1867, but nineteen years later the company folded and the line was then acquired by the Great Northern Company.
Passenger traffic was withdrawn in 1939, but the line was kept open for milk traffic. The high cost of maintenance proved too expensive and the line closed in 1951, having never shown a profit. It was broken up in 1959.
