SOMERSET & DORSET RAILWAY in 7mm

 

This months video from Bath Green Park shows a wide selection of freight and passenger movements that would have been seen in the late 50's and 60's up to closure. In particular I've been investigating milk movements north of Bath. We are all familiar with the milk tanker traffic from Bason Bridge, Wincanton and Bailey Gate that was run to Templecombe for rapid movement to London but I've recently been aware of tanker movements from Bailey Gate which I now understand was part of a circular run of milk traffic from Bailey Gate to Carmarthen and return either empty or with 'whey'. This features in this video. Sit back, turn up the volume and ENJOY

I was especially taken by that last lineside view of the returning banker.  Turns out that time travel is possible :) 

 

I try to make the videos as life like as possible.
