ROF Rotherwas
The Royal Ordnance Factory at Rotherwas, Hereford, covered 250 acres; was open from 1916 to 1967; employed up to 6000 workers; and contained 27 miles of standard gauge railways - including, of course, its own station. I fear the only rails you will find today are the two short panels under this diesel shunter and single wooden wagon, parked by the junction between Fordshill Road and the B4399 (at the east end of the Straight Mile).
