chrisf Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 There were proposals for an avoiding line in the 1930s, from Exminster to Hackney. Had it come to fruition there would have been a saving of several minutes in journey time and the line along the sea wall would probably have been singled. There are more details in Peter Kay's* book "Exeter - Newton Abbot - a railway history" published by Platform 5 in 1991. It makes a very attractive idea for a parallel universe layout. Had estimated costs not risen and Hitler not invaded Poland it would probably have been built. Chris * that is Peter Kay the historian, not Peter Kay the comic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
