Lostwithiel

Lostwithiel lies on the Cornish Main Line and is the junction for the former Fowey branch that still serves Carne Point. The video has been split into two parts, the first dealing with passenger train traffic on the main line. The second video looks at the running round processes associated with getting freight trains on and off the line to Carne Point.

These videos are intended for viewing at a maximum screen resolution of 1920 pixels wide by 1080 pixels high. Please be aware that viewing at a larger size may result in a loss of clarity and a 'grainy' appearance.
