Title: Trains on Salisbury Plain with nowhere to go Post by: Marlburian on December 23, 2024, 18:44:28 Copehill Village sidings (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-U3UmQiDbeE)
Though the "presenter" is a bit confused about rolling stock! It's a long time since I visited the village and I can vaguely remember the track, but in those days they were devoid of locomotives and stock. (And since I'm posting about Salisbury Plain, when I passed through Ludgershall in the summer the new housing estate west of the former station was nearing completion, though the embedded rails and warning signs for the spur that crossed the A3026 remained. An enthusiast for the M &SWJR was in Ludgershall in August, and was surprised to see how many wagons there were in the south yard. I didn't think that the "military line" from Andover was used nowadays, although talk persists of re-opening it to civilian traffic.)
