Mileages
Cooke gives milepost mileages for the line on adoption by the GWR (when the Gonamena incline had closed); from a zero at Looe the Moorswater point of junction was 7m 29c; South Caradon was 13m 66c. Tokenbury Corner (via reversal) was 14m 79c; Minions was 17m 16c; Cheesewring Quarry was 17m 67c; and Kilmar Tor was 19m 50c. (Railway distances were measured in miles and chains; there are 80 chains in a mile. One mile = 1.61 km.)
MacDermot gives the aggregate mileage at closure as 12m 45c.
