An up train leaves the station

Templecombe, a shadow of its former self

The SR signal box remains, and also serves as the ticket office

There's an interesting sculpture on the platform

The sculpture faces away from the trains

A down train appears in the distance

still a long way off

heading up the 1 in 100 to the station

slowing down

almost here

In former days S&D trains ran into the far side of the platform on the left

There's virtually nothing left of the S&D at Templecombe

Not many places as remote and peaceful as Templecombe have an hourly service to London
