Hardly! Although at the moment the plan is to head south, we are well aware that to have a viable railway (and to bring us closer to the real honeypot of Bath) restoration towards Radstock is a high priority. This is the view over Silver Street, where a bridge will need to be replaced. A further replacement bridge will be needed closer to Radstock, where the Midsomer Norton-Radstock road runs beneath the line. Radstock is desperate for the line to return ASAP, well aware that there is no better tool of regeneration than a working steam railway. And when that railway is the world famous S&D who knows how many millions of pounds will be injected into the local economy of Norton-Radstock over the coming decades once the trains return?
