That's just incredible work. I've spent my life around those streets and sometimes staggering home from the Rolle Quay pub. It looks just right.Even the old railway bridge over the Taw. I wish someone could add the Exeter-Barnstaple route,perhaps an extension of the excellent South Devon Banks route although it's large enough as it is.

I have scanned the photo's of the Town Station and will email them to you one at a time. I have not compressed them as not to loose quailty, that's why one at a time.

Here's a short video showing a GWR through service to Ilfracombe, stopping at Barnstaple Town, on the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway route. This route is still very much a WIP, so things like the lack of passengers on the platform will be fixed in the future.

I hope you enjoy it.
