PLYM VALLEY RAILWAY

The 'Plym Valley Railway' is part of the closed Yelverton - Launceston branch line of the Great Western Railway in Devon. The present working section of this standard gauge railway extends to about one mile in length.
The aim of the Plym Valley Railway is to re-build the 1.25 mile Marsh Mills to Plym Bridge section, of the ex-Great Western branch line to Launceston, via Tavistock. In trying to re-create the line in the 1950 to early 1960's period, it is hoped to preserve steam and diesel locomotives, carriages, wagons and other rolling stock, buildings, machinery and equipment of historic railway interest.
