Bristol Harbour Railway and Industrial Museum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (573 words) |
 | The railway, which reopened in 2000, was a branch of the Great Western Railway and operates on selected weekends between the Museum and the SS Great Britain on standard gauge track for half a mile. |
| At the height of the harbour's industrial use, the Bristol Harbour Railway had branches on Prince's Wharf on the south and Canons Marsh on the north side of the harbour. |
| On the south side of the harbour the railway crosses Spike Island, the narrow strip of land between the Harbour and the River Avon, and clings to the side of the river as far as the junction with the northern branch at the Cumberland Basin. |
