History of Williton Station
Williton Station stands right on the edge of the small town which it has served since 1862. The station area itself has some points of interest. Firstly the gap between the two lines of track is wider than might be expected. This is a consequence of the tracks that passed here being Brunel’s Broad Gauge of 7 feet and a quarter inch rather than the current standard gauge of 4 feet 8 and a half inches. The Signalbox which controls the movements at this station dates from the opening of the Railway in 1862 and is the last remaining box from the Bristol and Exeter Railway (who ran the branch on behalf of the original West Somerset Railway company before the Great Western took over). The goods shed is now the home of the Diesel and Electric Preservation Group (D&EPG), a dedicated band of enthusiasts whose passion and work is dedicated to the upkeep and maintenance of the generation of Diesel locomotives built in the 1960s and withdrawn from use by British Rail between the 1970s and 1990s. The D&EPG has an established visitor centre tracing the history of the Diesel Locomotive and this is open at weekends. The rest of Williton yard is a working area and access is not normally permitted to this or the large shed at the Minehead end of the site. This shed was once part of the GWR works at Swindon and was donated to the West Somerset Railway by Tarmac Plc.
Parking and refreshments are available at the station.
Please ensure the cache is replaced in the same location.
Watch out for Muggles.
