Ashbury Railway Carriage and Iron Company Ltd

The Ashbury Carriage and Iron Company Limited was a manufacturer of railway rolling stock founded by John Ashbury in 1837 in Commercial Street, Knott Mill in Manchester, England, near the original terminus of the Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne and Manchester Railway.

After the founder's death in 1866, the company was owned by his son, James Lloyd Ashbury.

[1] In 1902 the business was transferred to Saltley in Birmingham when it merged with Ashbury, Brown and Marshalls.

Examples of its rolling stock survive to this day on preserved railways all over the world.

The company name was revived in 2004 by the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway in North Wales to recreate some of the carriages that it built.
