Description

The Somerset and Dorset closed in 1966. A local enthusiast and railwayman, Terry Nicholls, whose still photography is quite well known, whose work has been published in the Glorious Years in the Steam Railway magazine, turned his cine camera to the line in its last two years. Unlike some videos of the line, this covers the Bristol to Bath via Mangotsfield route before venturing south to Templecombe and the Highbridge branch from Evercreech. Specials are also covered right up to the last day of working, with 4F, 8F and West Country pacifics.
