Thank you for a well-photographed and narrated film. I used to know Totnes quite well, through visiting a friend there in the 1970s. But my strongest memory is of the Totnes Quay branch, which I first encountered in 1963 during a cycling holiday around Cornwall and Devon. I have a photograph of an 0-6-0PT locomotive shunting there, crossing the road I was on via the level crossing. I also remember it because of my idiotic decision to make a 180-degree turn on my heavily loaded bike while I was in the middle of the crossing. Thud!! Both wheels dropped into the gap between the running rail and the check rail. It was pretty hard getting the bike out, and my efforts attracted some attention. I felt such a fool. It was a lovely town then; but it looks so different now; and as you say, there's no trace of the Quay Branch. Thanks again!

Another very interesting exploration! It's a great shame that the A38 reconstruction was allowed to block the line north of Buskfastleigh cutting Ashburton off from a useful link and limiting the scope of the Dart Valley Railway

Have the Friends of Ashburton Station made any headway with their plans for the station and its environs ?As a heritage site it would be a gem. Perhaps this video will inpire some renewed interest.
