Malcolm claims there was another embankment with brick arch to the south of Hooley where the road had to be lowered to pass under it; between Purley and Coulsdon the ground had to be levelled by cutting and filling. Accordingly, the gradient on the CM&GR was a steady 1 in 120. After the ground had been levelled, a foundation of chalk and flint was laid, which was pounded, watered and rolled. The stone blocks and rails were then laid and more chalk added, with a sprinkling of gravel ballast. Tharby’s excavation revealed a flint rather than gravel ‘path’ at Merstham. The CM&GR had its own toll houses at Croydon and Merstham; the latter is still standing as Weighbridge Cottage, 201 London Road North, and is a grade 2

According to Farey writing in 1806, the most common wagon was 7 feet 5 inches (2.26 m) long by 4 feet 5 inches (1.35 m) wide and 2 feet 4 inches (0.71 m) high. The owners were also obliged to register the wagons with the railway company and paint their name and wagon number in letters 3 inches (7.6 cm) tall in white on a black background. An artist’s impression was printed on a 1939 cigarette card. The company, “Were & Bush” were significant

the axles further forward, with the rear axle in the centre. Wollaston’s 1823 watercolour depicts shorter, taller wagons used for conveying coal. Malcolm claims it was usual for three wagons to be drawn by a pair of horses, although Farey mentions one horse could pull several wagons and were generally large mules by the time the railway closed. The train travelled at the walking pace of the person who led the horses / mules and checked the track.

CM&GR. Unlike the gentle inclines on these railways, the gradient was an average of about 1:66 and may have been 1:28 at its steepest. Comparison with other tramways suggest that a horse or mule could pull trucks up the tramway, which like the road followed a longer, less direct path up the hillside. The road survives as today’s
Tamworth Road.
916:. The cutting started just north of Dean Lane, which required a brick bridge to carry the road over the railway. There were two other bridges over the cutting, one 200m south for the entrance to Dean Farm, and the other about 125m south of Harps Oak Lane, just south of the A23 dual carriageway near where the houses begin.
599:. The company did not operate its own trains. Sometimes it leased out the track and the dock, and sometimes it collected tolls and kept the line in repair itself. From about 1836, James Lyon leased the tolls and could be hired to convey goods along the railway. There were toll or gate houses at Croydon, Wandsworth and

The company had a wharf at
Pitlake, which they let with the tramway to Edward Grantham. At the canal basin the wagons were dragged up a short incline on to a platform using a windlass, which likely doubled as a 4 ton crane. The tramway was taken up in August 1836, and when the road was reopened

This was the first part of the ‘railway’ to be constructed and was opened on 7 January 1802. It was managed by Samuel Jones, the wharfinger. There was likely a lock-keeper and watchman, as there were when the railway and dock were let in 1806 until the railway’s closure in 1846. The dock continued

Tharby and Lee measured the distance between the centres of the rails as 4 feet 6 inches (137 cm) on a preserved section found in situ at Quarry Dean Farm, Merstham in 1967. On a plateway, the gauge is taken as the dimension over the outer faces of the upstands. As the rails were 4
