I was at Mangapps Railway Museum in Essex in October 2010 (www.mangapps.co.uk) There I found this map showing the railway running all the way from Gwinear Road on the main line to Lizard Town.

Mullion Cove The harbour was completed in 1895 and financed by Lord Robartes of Lanhydrock as a recompense to the fishermen for several disastrous pilchard seasons. It is protected from southerly winter gales by two sea walls and the old pilchard cellar and net store are preserved. The owners of the harbour, National Trust, have no plans to further repair the sea walls.
