The Tamar Valley Line is one of England's loveliest country branch lines. This fourteen mile railway skirts the edge of the magnificent River Tamar and its estuary before crossing the splendid Calstock viaduct joining Devon and Cornwall.
The journey is full of contrasts taking in views of the Royal Naval Dockyard in Plymouth and Brunel's famous Royal Albert Bridge over the Tamar, before crossing the Tavy viaduct into the quiet countryside of the Bere Peninsula.
As the train climbs towards Gunnislake, remnants of the area's industrial past are visible, together with glimpses of a few slopes and orchards still cultivated by market gardeners.

Not a Straight Line is a puzzle cache with the clues being in the area where the railway curves around the village of Calstock the penultimate stopping point on the line before the terminus at Gunnislake.
Parking for cars is available in the vicinity of the first clue or of course you could come by train!
