This is all seems to fit in with Canalside being the one in Bromford Lane .The canal was where The Harmonic pub was on the bridge.Just before the fair ground.
Also in Bromford Lane is Oldbury Railway Station so that may be why your grandmother had a train carriage.
Beaton? Thats an Oldbury name.I knew quite a few Beatons growing up in Oldbury.

I was reading this and i tend to agree with Den.
Canalside was on the Whimsey Bridge.Holloways had a Boat Builders and possibly also  a coal wharf there in the 50's.
