We met Tricia, Robin the Station Master, and Luke operating the signals today.

This beautiful station is really worth a visit! One of our favourites for sure 😉

Another superb day filming on the West Somerset Railway 🚂
We’ve spent loads of time at and had the privilege of meeting Station Master Roger, Laura who looks after marketing & Social Media, and Roly who looks suspiciously like Santa 🎅 😉

Everyone has made us feel welcome, this really is a lovely station and a lovely heritage railway!
If you see us, please stop to say hi 👋
