West Somerset Railway Heritage Trust WSRHT

Easter at Gauge Junction

Easter holiday weekend will soon be here and if you plan to visit the railway at the weekend, why not pay us a visit at Gauge Junction?  We are situated on the upper floor of the Gauge museum on platform 1 at Bishops Lydeard station and will be open every day from Wednesday 17th until Monday 21st from 10.00am to 4.00pm. 

Gauge Junction is a display which is being developed and operated mainly by the younger generation of the Steam Trust and WSR.  During the Easter period our operating team will be displaying varied displays of mainly steam era models running a frequent service around our scenic exhibition standard layout. 

Do pay us a visit and chat with our operators and enjoy a 00 gauge treat, it may even encourage you to join us as we need extra volunteers aged 14 upwards.
