The Cornwall Minerals Railway owned and operated a network of 45 miles (72 km) of standard gauge railway lines in central Cornwall United Kingdom. It started by taking over an obsolescent horse-operated tramway in 1862 and it improved and extended it connecting Newquay and Par Harbours and Fowey. Having expended considerable capital it was hurt by a collapse in mineral extraction due to a slump in prices.
