“Although the possibility of a railway through the county to Falmouth was first considered in 1833, the connection to London was not achieved until 1859… This is an insight into the heated political debates with most of the leading engineers of the day taking part, along with Cornwall’s gentry, landowners and business interests. Once construction started, financial difficulties delayed progress so that the line took thirteen years to complete.”
