The Pentewan Railway was a 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) narrow gauge railway in Cornwall, England. It was built as a horse-drawn tramway carrying china clay from St Austell to a new harbour at Pentewan, and was opened in 1829. In 1874 the line was strengthened for locomotive working. It finally succumbed to more efficient operation at other ports and closed in 1918.

  • Die Pentewan Railway war eine Schmalspurbahn mit der damals ungewöhnlichen Spurweite von 762 mm (2 Fuß 6 Zoll) bei in Cornwall, England. Sie wurde als Pferdeeisenbahn gebaut, um Kaolinit von St Austell zu einem damals neu angelegten Hafen in Pentewan zu transportieren, und wurde 1829 eröffnet. 1874 wurden die Gleise verstärkt, um Dampflokomotiven einsetzen zu können. Nachdem das Transportaufkommen von effizienteren Häfen übernommen wurde, wurde die Bahn 1918 stillgelegt. (de)
