Return to Evercreech Junction

When Dr Beeching took his axe to the rural railway network few cuts were as savage, or as deeply resented, as that of the entire Somerset and Dorset system. Its staff took great pride in working this steeply graded line over the Mendip Hills, and a strong sense of family loyalty existed. Before it was all swept away in 1966 Bath enthusiast Ivo Peters recorded the railway on film.
