Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Railway bridge, Churston Ferrers, near Brixham The Church at Churston can be seen in the distance from under this railway bridge. The "disused railway", discontinued in the Age of Beeching when the car was going to take over the earth...., used to take travellers right into Brixham from all corners of the land. How useful it would be now to see trains running from Brixham to Torquay, Newton Abbot, Exeter and beyond. All these "local" destinations (Exeter is about 25 miles from here) are largely achieved by cars and the Council has been encouraging motorists to share their cars for years, but we are all addicted, it seems. This railway could not be re-opened, as housing has been built on part of its old course.
