Crowcombe Heathfield 20" x 30". Alkyd. 2001 • A view on the West Somerset Railway, c.1997. New houses have since been built to the right of the line. The station name-board shown here has been replaced. The shelter in the foreground was erected in 1996 and painted in GWR colours the following year. The loco (6412) was, I believe, undergoing an overhaul in 1997, but it is so right for the scene that I decided to include it. << prev | back to railways menu >> |

The line runs from Bishops Lydeard, near Taunton, past the Quantock Hills northwards towards the Bristol Channel coast at Minehead. |
