Summary
| Description |
English: Site of Billacombe Station. View eastwards, towards Yealmpton. This is a final view of the track-bed before being buried under a by-pass. Passenger trains to Yealmpton ran from Plymouth (Millbay) GWR until the line was closed on 7/7/30. Then during World War II, when Plymouth was so badly blitzed and people moved out to the surrounding country villages, the Yealmpton branch (and Billacombe station) was reopened on 3/11/41, but with trains running from Plymouth (Friary)SR. The passenger service lasted only until 6/10/47, goods until 29/2/60. |
