Langport West

Langport West was on the Yeovil Branch line, linking to the Bristol to Exeter line at Durston, near Taunton.   The station was at Westover and was prone to winter flooding.

Local resident Robert Webb took the train from Langport West station to get to school in Taunton.  He remembers that if you missed the train at Langport West, you could just about make it to Langport East by pedalling your bike very fast, and still catch a train to make it to school on time.
