Many thanks to John who has sent us the following link to some very exciting proposed developments.  Lets hope these proposals, dreams for many years, come to fruition.
The new proposals include reopening the former Southern main line between Exeter, Okehampton and Plymouth, redoubling the Southern route between Salisbury and Exeter and restoring passenger services to Minehead, Padstow and Fowey.
