Isn't the Weston branch single track? HSTs▸ use that branch.
Actually, it's a loop - but it is single track - and yes, HSTs use it. But it's not Weston.  |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

ok im going to take a serious guess now... single line, i didnt know that the bike sign was for hst's so that ruled out severn beach line as i originally thought, having spent 20 mins looking at pictures of each single platform station on the cotswolds line im pretty sure its none of them, there is only one single platform station on the weston deviation and i agree with devon metro i dont think its weston milton
to cut a long story short and this is a guess i think its Frome as there is now a morning service to paddington and it may be a hst
shoot me down or call me god !!

I was coming to the same conclusion: after ruling out most single-track stations, Frome seemed to be the only place left - so I turned to a combination of SimSig and Google Maps! (Or is that cheating?) The curve, bridge and multi-aspect signal with subsidiary lights could fit. Too much time on my hands  |

Too much time on my hands i did the same thing i ruled out the two other stations on the line with single platforms... one is one of the what i count as cheap platforms made out of huge concrete slabs and the other wouldnt get a hst stopping there |

Frome station looking north, Castle Cary down main line 'banner repeater' (signal W156BR, showing that the route is set for the main line towards Taunton) and Bruton station bottom of the footbridge onto the down (westbound) platform .

Relex you've been on a role recently...  Because number 1 is most definately Frome I am afraid though that 3 is not Keynsham and that 2 is not Cowley bridge Jn |

Ta for the welcome. Regularly pass through these places so I must have been paying a little too much attention to the surroundings!
