A look at the lost Sidmouth Railway line linking Feniton with Sidmouth!
It was a railway branch line that ran from a junction at Feniton to Sidmouth, connecting the resort to the main line network.
When the line opened, the passenger train service comprised seven trains each way six days a week, taking 28 to 30 minutes for the journey. After the opening of the Budleigh Salterton Railway the train frequency on the northern half of the original Sidmouth railway naturally increased. By 1909 the service had approximately doubled, with trains on Sundays also. Sidmouth was not an industrial town, so goods services mainly brought inwards agricultural supplies, building materials and coal for domestic purposes and for the gasworks at Sidmouth.
Through coaches were discontinued in 1964 except on summer Saturdays, as the local trains were diesel multiple units.
The lines closed to passenger traffic on 6 March 1967 and to freight on 8 May that year.
