The short train from Highbridge

On a grim winters day, Ivatt 2-6-2T No.41290 takes on water at Evercreech Junction after arriving with its train from Highbridge on 18 December 1965.

The Somerset & Dorset line was to close a few days later on 3 January 1966, however this was deferred until 7 March 1966 as one of the replacement road operators withdrew his application.
