West Somerset Railway
The West Somerset Railway is a true country branch line
of the old Great Western Railway and is full of fascination whether you
are looking for a ride back in time or to study the railway and
industrial heritage which the line preserves.
The steam locomotives, coaches and wagons, and the
buildings of our unique stations are linked by a twenty mile scenic
journey. The rolling Quantock hills and distant Exmoor, unspoilt
villages and farms that nestle in leafy lanes, the cliffs and coast of
the Bristol Channel, confident Church Towers, Dunster’s imposing Castle
and Minehead’s seaside charm are all waiting to be discovered.Dogs are welcome on our service trains and are charged £2.00 per dog.
