A platform view of Minehead Station, Somerset. It was first opened in 1874 as the terminus of the Minehead Railway but closed in 1971. It was reopened in 1976 and is now the headquarters and terminus of the West Somerset heritage Railway. Since this was once a true country branch line of the old ‘Great Western Railway’ we still see the original benches. The train on the left is about to depart being pulled by a steam engine.

Enjoy full screen.

Have a great day.

Yes it would have been really busy in those days but in fact it was still busy with tourist wanting to ride on those steam engines. They looked to be offering afternoon tea on board too.

HBM. enjoy the week. Herb

A super candid shot Herb.............and nicely framed. Shame about the litter bin though! I do like the livery on these old trains........much better than the gaudy colours of some of the new companies.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Haha, yes, thought about trying to get rid of bin but no go! I know what you mean about the colours. Glad you enjoyed this anyway.

Best wishes. Herb
