SDJRroute-01.jpg (163951 bytes)

Looking north from the roadbridge immediately north of Highbridge and Burnham railway staiton in Somerset. The Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway route from its station to Burnham-on-Sea crossed the surviving Great Western line at an acute angle from right to left under the bridge and diverged between the bridge and red-brick building seen here.
The gathering of plant and materials in the yard on the left of the line is in advance of a week-long closure of the line for track replacement between Worle Junction north of Weston-super-Mare and Cogload Junction north of Taunton.

footbridge-01.jpg (161744 bytes)

The eastern (platform 1) side of the footbridge at Higbridge & Burnham station has an unusual design. The reason for this is that it dates from when it was a junction station between the suriving north-south Great Western station and the northwest-southeast Somerset & Dorset Joint railway that met at an acute angle. The S&D route route to Burnham-on-Sea crossed the Great Western lines immediately north of the latter's platforms, and the bridge would have continued over these tracks to the southwest-bound platform and north-side bays.

Looking north from the footbridge at Highbridge and Burnham railway staiton. The present station is a small station served by local trains between Weston-super-Mare and Taunton is a shadow of its former existence as an important junction station between the Great Western and Somerset & Dorset Joint railways.
The latter station, the site of which was on the right of this photograph, was closed along with the rest of the railway in the 1960s. The reason platform 1 on the right is significantly shorter is than platform 2 is that the SDJR route to Burnham-on-Sea crossed the Great Western tracks at an acute angle here, coming in from the bottom right, sharing the road bridge and then heading off to the left.

The site of the now-demolished Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway Highbridge station, adjacent to the surviving Great Western portion, now the National Rail Highbridge & Burnham railway station, is now mostly a housing development. These rail tracks and wheels are about the only clues that the station even existed, and even then there is no plaque explaining their significance.

Road/rail diggera, two trolleys and lighting units in the yard adjacent to the Great Western main line north of Highbridge & Bridgwater railway station. This is part of a garthering of plant and materials in advance of a week-long closure of the line for track replacement between Worle Junction north of Weston-super-Mare and Cogload Junction north of Taunton.
