In addition to the reopening of the Exeter to Plymouth via Okehampton line, Railfuture Devon and Cornwall advocates trackbed protection of a number of other closed lines where there is potential for future reopening. These include:
- Bideford to Barnstaple (for service to Exeter),
- Launceston to Okehampton (via Halwill or Lydford for service to Exeter),
- Ilfracombe to Barnstaple,
- Tiverton to Tiverton Junction (Willand) (for service to Exeter),
- Sidmouth to Feniton (for service to Exeter).
We are supportive of local groups wishing to restore rail services to Wadebridge, Bude and Ashburton, but in the meantime seek improved bus/rail connections.
