| This line still exists up to the Sainsbury's on Alphington Road. The A377 then follows its route to the roundabout with the A30, it then curved into Ide before going off up along the Teign Valley (hence the name Teign Valley Line). The tunnels still exist and there are plans to rebuild it as an alternative to the exposed Dawlish route used by mainline trains today. |

| This is the junction where the Teign Valley branch diverges from the Great Western main line. There is still a short section of the branch line here running into Marsh Barton. |

| Industrial railway sidings with what appears to be container wagons (petrol/fuel?). No doubt Maurice could enlarge on what is happening here with the goods vehicles. Classic goods wagons and guards vans which I still have from my Tri-ang days! |

| This whole area has now become gentrified with riverside flats,a paved palazzo and taken over by café society and visitors. In the photo it's a light industrial area existing on subsistence wages and heavy work. Now it's a pleasant riverside relaxation area. |

| The Foot Ferry. Still operated today as it was then, by a boatman who pulls the ferry across the narrow river by hand using an overhead cable.

An interesting example of how residential and dirty industrial premises existed side by side and one can imagine the unhealthy conditions for the local residents. How, for example, could families have even reasonable living conditions given the two chimneys from the electricity generating building belching out thick black smoke. Even in the late 1970's the area had a foul nauseating smell. |
