The Trust is independent from the Telford Steam Railway ('TSR').
In late 2018 the TSR launched a website "[https://steamingtoironbridge.co.uk/ Steaming to Ironbridge]" with its own proposals for a connection to Ironbridge. The TSR proposals would use a narrow gauge tramway (rather than a standard gauge railway) between Ironbridge and a planned central station on the former power station site at Buildwas. The reasons given for this choice include the ability to share the trackbed with the existing footpath, the need for minimal station space in Ironbridge leaving the main car park intact, and the reduced cost of renewing/maintaining the 10-arch viaduct on the route.<ref>[https://steamingtoironbridge.co.uk/phase-4-tramway/ Steaming to Ironbridge website] (retrieved 10 October 2018)</ref>. {{As of|2020|08}} the Steaming to Ironbridge website is no longer available<ref>[https://steamingtoironbridge.co.uk/cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi]</ref>.
