1976: The TRAIN STATION with NO TRAINS | Nationwide | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive

John Stapleton reports from Tavistock North railway station in Devon, which was closed by British Rail in the late 1960's following the Beeching Report, but which has since been converted into living accommodation by its former station master, Ron Hooper. Ron lives in the station with his wife, and together they still tend to the abandoned station.
