1409:. Kelly Bray, about a mile (about 1.5 km) north of Callington, was at an altitude of 640 feet (195 m) above sea level and was the railhead for a considerable agricultural hinterland. The line fell all the way to Calstock except for a short sharp climb. There were public depots (i.e. goods stations) intermediately at Monks Corner (later the site of Luckett station), Cox's Park (later Latchley), and Drakewalls (later Gunnislake). There were numerous sidings connecting with mines and quarries, in particular Kit Hill, Hingston Down, Gunnislake Clitters Mine, Plymouth Depot, Pearson's Quarry (at West of England Siding). The locomotive-operated part of the line ended at Incline Station, where there were sidings for forming trains at the head of the incline. 833: 797: 663: 586: 362: 1003: 1353: 1093: 1014: 1059: 966: 634: 503: 257: 1849: 1187: 1111: 994: 949: 1221: 771: 763: 641: 612: 510: 232: 1911: 1180: 1171: 1076: 1052: 916: 811: 605: 547: 464: 323: 249: 188: 1127: 1084: 1068: 859: 704: 682: 403: 282: 241: 1119: 1030: 1022: 958: 908: 804: 778: 755: 711: 442: 381: 304: 210: 1101: 974: 924: 866: 840: 1433:
Navigation on the Tamar was difficult, but when the line opened, the nearest main line railways were the Cornwall Railway at Saltash, and the South Devon and Tavistock Railway, across the Tamar and Tavy rivers. Extension to connect to them was considered, but was impossibly expensive. However, on 25

was formed, obtaining Parliamentary authority on 9 August 1869. This was to have a capital of £60,000, with borrowing powers of £20,000, and adopt the abandoned works of the Kit Hill company. The line was to be nearly 8 miles (13 km) long, including short lengths on the quay at Calstock and the

With the decline in usage of rural railways in the second half of the twentieth century, the viability of the line decreased and it was proposed for closure. However the poor road network around Calstock, and the topographical barrier of the Tamar, resulted in retention of the line from Plymouth to

When the ECMR line was built, the incline was taken over by the railway company. There is evidence of realignment of the incline: the later route was higher up the hillside and reduced the sharp curve near the bottom. It is likely that this was done at the time of adoption of the incline as part of

The incline at Calstock had been built in 1859 by the Tamar Coal, Manure & General Merchandise Co to bring supplies to mines on the higher ground, and to bring their products down. It was 2,310 feet (704 m) long on a gradient of 1 in 6. It was self-acting, but a stationary steam engine was

Regauging and some realignment of the ECMR line was undertaken in 1907–1908 but ordinary traffic was only interrupted for two days during the conversion. The new line from Bere Alston to Callington opened to passengers and freight traffic on 2 March 1908. The Bere Alston to Plymouth section of the

was formed in 1864. The company was to build a standard gauge line from Callington to Kelly Quay at Calstock, with an inclined plane to descend to the quayside there. The company obtained Parliamentary authority on 29 July 1864. Construction was soon under way, and the following year a broad gauge

The Light Railways Act was passed in 1896, designed to facilitate the construction of new lines where there was no controversy over routing, and in 1898 the PD&SWJR investigated the possibility of connecting the ECMR line to its own line as a light railway. This proved feasible, and the Bere

for onward coast-wise shipping transport. The chief mineral was copper ore, with some tin and arsenic also; timber and coal was brought in to serve the mines. Although the Tamar was tidal at Calstock, the passage to the sea was difficult, involving poling the ship past shoal stretches.
1382:, and in 1866 the Kit Hill company, obtained authority to build on the broad gauge instead, so as to connect with the Saltash company. But that year there was a financial crash, and although much work had been done on the Kit Hill line, nothing further was done on either route. 1490:) standard gauge. The position now was to be that the Okehampton–Devonport line would be owned by the PD&SWJR and worked by the LSWR, and the Bere Alston to Callington line would be owned by the BA&CR, a subsidiary of the PD&WJR, and worked by the PD&SWJR. 1453:
Alston and Calstock Light Railway Order was confirmed by the Board of Trade on 12 July 1900; as well as the new line, the Order authorised the acquisition of the ECMR line and its operation as a passenger light railway (excepting the incline). The gauge was to remain

A Light Railway Order was made on 12 October 1905 authorising a change of the track gauge to 1449:. Accordingly, the ECMR was "taken over" as from 1 June 1891, although the formalities of the purchase were not completed until 4 January 1894. "Payment was made by the issue of £48,250 in ordinary shares, £12,500 in cash, and a rent charge of £250 per annum". 1422:

The former ECMR line was now operated as part of the branch, although the incline at Calstock was abandoned. The PD&SWJR branch crossed the Tamar on a high viaduct at Calstock where a wagon lift was provided to allow continued access to the quay.

In the middle decades of the 19th century, mineral extraction in the Callington and Gunnislake area of East Cornwall reached a peak. The trade was limited by the difficulty of conveying the products to market: pack horses were used as far as
