Gunnislake
Having reversed at Bere Alston, 150124 has just arrived from Plymouth at Gunnislake, Cornwall, at the end of the truncated Callington branch, with one of my friends and travelling companion, another David, on the left, on 11th March 2017. This was originally an intermediate station but became a terminus when the section onto Callington was closed in 1966. For another 28 years, trains continued to terminate at the original Gunnislake station, serving just one side of its former island platform. This closed on 30th January 1994 to allow nearby road improvements and was replaced by the present single platform about 100 yards closer to Plymouth. The old station was demolished along with a nearby road bridge.
