LSWR Exeter - Plymouth looking towards Tavistock North
Now getting overgrown , once you would have had a great view of a train departing from Tavistock North to Bere Alston. The line shut in May 1968 and now is a footpath / cycle way across the viaduct. Part of the trackbed the other side of the viaduct at the former Tavistock North station has been built over. This view is looking towards the old station and the Exeter direction. The track was lifted in late 1969 early winter 1970.

Tavistock railway viaduct
The viaduct was opened in 1890 on the Plymouth Devonport and South Western Junction Railway's double track line from Plymouth to Lydford. The tracks were lifted after closure in 1968 and the trackbed now forms a section of the National Cycle Network's Route 27, the Devon Coast to Coast route.
(From a purely Geograph point of view the 248000 Easting gridline crosses the viaduct around its halfway point so this view is looking into Image too.)

Tavistock Viaduct
Tavistock Viaduct was part of the closed LSWR line from Exeter to Plymouth. This picture is taken from Taylor Square. The line was the London & South Western, later Southern Railway main line to Plymouth, closed in 1968. It has been suggested that this line should be re-opened to provide an alternative route to Plymouth and Cornwall as the old Great Western Railway route from Exeter to Plymouth is now the only access and can be subject to storm damage along the coast around Dawlish.
