The West Somerset Railway is the longest standard gauge independent heritage railway in the United Kingdom. It normally runs 20½ miles from Bishops Lydeard to Minehead, with intermediate stations at Crowscombe Heathfield, Stogumber, Williton, Doniford Halt, Watchet, Washford, Blue Anchor, and Dunster.
During special events, some trains continue a further two miles to Norton Fitzwarren where a connection to Network Rail allows occasional through trains to operate onto the national network.
The railway's locomotive fleet includes several ex-GWR passenger locomotives and heritage diesel locomotives.
Since when you had WARCHET as a Station please rectify as WATCHET IS THE CORRECT NAME.
Good luck during 2022
