This line shut in May 1968 and part of the trackbed is now a cycleway. Looking towards Bere Alston. This was the former London and South Western Route to Plymouth latterly run by the Southern Region of BR until the Western Region took over and shut the line.A town the size of Tavistock should never have lost its railway. Look at the cars on the Plymouth to Tavistock road.
