Whilst I cannot come up with the date, I do know that the fatal acident involved a Huncoat policeman's child in the tunnel, and resulted in the overhead sysrtem being initiated. There is a photo of the system in the boojk 'Hncoat Uncoated' by John Goddard, which I published.

I have just looked at the book - the photo we have been discussing is in it (p33) and tells that the system was dismantled in the 60s.
