Lostwithiel

Network Rail has donated a kilometre of track and sleepers, plus five sets of points and four stop blocks to Devon-based Plym Valley Railway, supporting the volunteer-led local attraction and enabling the preservation of this heritage railway line. The equipment, which was no longer used by Network Rail, was removed from Lostwithiel yard in Cornwall and offered to Plym Valley, a heritage railway that operates on what was previously known as the Launceston branch line, which opened in 1859 and linked Plymouth with Tavistock.
