Branches To The Sea

Code: TV026

Description

In the pre-Beeching era, the railway was often the main mode of travel for the legions of holidaymakers making their way to the seaside.

A network of branches connected the coastal resorts with the main line network. We explore various lines employing both steam and diesel traction in the 1960s.

The programme comprises:

The Minehead branch in the days of steam and in 1969
The Maiden Newton to Bridport branch including an ill-fated steam special
The Hayling Island Branch
The Cleveden to Yatton Branch
Yeovil Junction and its lines connecting to the coast
The Sidmouth Branch.
