Paisley and Renfrew Railway
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Paisley_and_Renfrew_Railway an entity of type: Company
The Paisley and Renfrew railway was an early Scottish railway company that constructed and operated a line between Paisley and the River Clyde at Renfrew Wharf, enabling journeys between Glasgow and Paisley by connecting river boat. The railway was built to the track gauge of 4 ft 6 in (1,372 mm) on stone block sleepers. The line opened in 1837 and used locomotive power at first. Its operating costs were much higher than expected, and its income was disappointing, and horse traction was used to save expenditure.

Its operating costs were much higher than expected, and its income was disappointing, and horse traction was used to save expenditure. The company sold its line to the Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock and Ayr Railway in 1847, but horse traction continued until 1866 when a connecting curve to the main line was opened, and through trains between Renfrew and Glasgow operated. Never a flourishing line, it closed to passengers in 1967, and to goods traffic in 1981.
