Stretcher for railway track, Dinorwig Quarry Hospital [image 1 of 2]

Description

Despite the hospital's proximity, it sometimes took as long as an hour and a half to transport the injured quarryman from the rock face. This stretcher made use of the railway tracks to transport the quarryman to the hospital, though it had to be carried down steep inclines.
