somerset and dorset today part 7-evercreech road bridge (99)-chilcompton tunnel(bridge 49)
7th April 2009

more shots of the line that should never have shut in 1966.

some bridges and locations were impossible to get , due to being on privite land, or as was the case with masbury summit - unable to stop on the main road due to busy traffic ,and unable to find anywhere to park due to white lines.
i may have another crack next year and fill in the gaps.!
