The railway was closed in 1947, but three of its engines survive on the Skarloey Railway.
In The Railway Stories books, all of the steam engines are painted the same bright red colour with simple blue lining (except for Duke, who retains the dark red-brown paint from his days on the Mid Sodor Railway).
•
Whilst Skarloey retained his Railway Series colour (With the exception of white and yellow lining), Sir Handel and Peter Sam retain the colours that they wore when they were named Falcon (blue) and Stuart (green) on the Mid Sodor Railway.
•
Glennock station, as portrayed in Four Little Engines, is based on Aberllefenni Station on the Corris Railway.
•
After World War II the railway was in a poor state, and the old mines had become ammunition dumps.
•
Eventually, Skarloey failed and Rheneas was left to manage alone, which he did admirably until Peter Sam and Sir Handel were bought from the Mid Sodor Railway to help out.
