Supporting the Dartmoor Line
 After nearly 50 years, daily regular passenger trains to Okehampton recommenced with the 0632 from Exeter on November 20th 2021, seen here arriving at Okehampton at 0710. |
Welcome to the website of the DRA. We are an all-volunteer organisation dedicated to supporting the former London & South Western Railway/Southern Railway route between Meldon Viaduct and the site of the former Coleford Junction, centred on Okehampton Station.
Nearly 50 years since closure, regular Okehampton - Exeter services recommenced on November 20th 2021, operated by GWR and marketed as The Dartmoor Line. The new service has a dedicated website, dartmoorline.com
As yet the future of the Okehampton to Meldon section is unclear.
