  1. And GWR have started on the Severn Beach Branch recently running fast from Temple Meads to Clifton and vice-versa. Personally, I'd rather have a late running train rather than no train at all. Maybe I am odd in that way.
  2. Does Burnham-on-Sea qualify? Obviously now long gone, but station served the town and the rails continued onto the slipway apparently. Also boats carried passengers to and from Wales.
  3. Great photos Craig. Looking forward to some more next weekend! Hope the weather is kind to you.
  4. Glad you've made it down here Jim. Nice to see some photos I recognise. Temple Meads to Parkway and back sounds like an excellent days work!
  5. Hopefully 'The Blue Bridge' is safe from modernisation. It only carries a footpath between two fields these days but does give pretty good views.
  6. Hello, would it be better to have new titles. That way people trying to research specifics will find it easier to use and those just browsing will still look anyway. As I've said before your photos are very good and have helped with my layout. I'll look forward to your next instalment.
  7. Can I add my support to the idea that these reminiscences should be recorded. We used to visit family in Yeovil and would often change at Westbury as there were less direct trains from Bristol. The way the railway seemed in the 70's and 80's was a world away from today and the photos and stories on this thread should be recorded so as we never forget that way of life.
  8. Brilliant, glad you're back with more pics of this area and era as it will help with my model, which although is fictitous has a basis in fact. Although I was brought up in Northavon, I was around ten at the time so memories are hazy. Thanks again.
