5477:. Crossing trains on the single line sections always added operational interest to the line, but many enthusiasts chose to focus on the quirky operation of trains calling at Templecombe and the light engine movements associated with them. Trains had to reverse from Templecombe station to Templecombe Junction (for southbound trains, and the reverse for northbound), requiring use of a pilot engine to assist with these manoeuvres. In at least one case, a northbound train and a southbound train, both requiring to call at Templecombe station, were timed to arrive at Templecombe Junction simultaneously. The operating procedure was for the northbound train to set back on to the southbound train at the junction, thence to be pulled into the station by the southbound train engine, with the northbound engine still on the back. After completion of station work, the entire equipage was pulled back to the junction by the northbound train engine, where the two trains were uncoupled to continue on their separate ways. 7586: 7527: 6096: 6421: 113: 6294:, to improve handling of the heavy train service, and by 1905 about two-thirds of the main line mileage was double track, and trains could now run throughout from Bath to Bournemouth with reasonable convenience, excepting only the awkward arrangement at Templecombe. Southbound trains calling there (to make connection into the LSWR Exeter main line) had to be hauled back to the S&D junction by a spare engine, then to continue their southward journey; the corresponding evolution in reverse was necessary for northbound trains. This complexity persisted until the final closure of the S&D line. 6217:. The S&D station sat exactly between them and while these railways remained broad gauge, connecting them, a connection was difficult. Eventually they were absorbed by the GWR, and then converted to standard gauge, and on 1 January 1878 a through connection was made, so that goods traffic exchange was now possible, and GWR passenger trains could run throughout from Yatton to Witham, through the S&D station. They did not make calls there until 1 October 1934, and ceased to do so when the S&D Wells branch closed in 1951. 6413: 7484: 6405: 6221: 6589: 5526: 4087: 3524: 3378: 1235: 11572: 11562: 4835: 4095: 1144: 995: 739: 699: 4889: 4565: 4395: 4363: 4262: 4245: 4143: 3887: 3483: 3386: 3342: 3144: 3115: 3048: 2825: 2605: 2253: 1832: 1518: 1063: 1010: 746: 707: 648: 596: 7031: 7024: 4828: 4372: 4333: 4310: 3782: 3301: 2832: 2411: 2036: 2029: 1839: 1657: 1643: 1598: 1350: 1324: 1191: 1070: 1002: 897: 870: 6647:(06:45, 08:15, 16:25 and 18:10), and two a day (06:55 and 16:00) from Highbridge. There were no through trains other than the 18:46 from Bournemouth Central on Saturdays, with journeys being broken at Templecombe and no suitable connections provided. There were no services on Sundays. Finally, on 7 March 1966 the whole S&D line from Bath to Bournemouth – and also the Evercreech Junction to Highbridge line – was closed under the 7127: 7101: 7002: 6920: 4882: 4851: 4679: 4625: 4135: 4069: 3894: 3570: 3504: 3370: 3293: 3004: 2973: 2612: 1650: 1583: 1242: 1228: 1151: 926: 689: 4719: 7153: 6995: 6950: 6943: 4945: 4669: 4654: 4573: 4317: 4303: 4270: 4254: 4218: 4211: 4151: 4103: 4077: 4062: 4020: 4013: 3360: 3162: 3055: 3041: 2914: 2788: 2598: 2550: 2480: 2420: 2385: 2378: 2179: 1695: 1591: 1575: 1565: 1525: 1511: 1504: 1474: 715: 681: 656: 631: 603: 589: 544: 537: 9532: 7268: 7050: 6015: 4911: 4844: 4821: 4799: 4686: 4661: 4632: 4494: 4468: 4424: 4387: 4379: 4325: 3734: 3497: 3490: 3454: 3393: 3352: 3334: 3177: 3170: 3011: 2997: 2781: 2541: 1985: 1978: 1687: 1467: 1432: 1294: 1137: 1100: 986: 819: 805: 640: 38: 6972: 5031: 4694: 4618: 4557: 4548: 4460: 4294: 4181: 4006: 3976: 3946: 3916: 3857: 3830: 3790: 3742: 3702: 3672: 3630: 3622: 3590: 3462: 3261: 3231: 3154: 3085: 2966: 2907: 2900: 2870: 2863: 2856: 2818: 2774: 2752: 2745: 2738: 2708: 2701: 2694: 2664: 2656: 2648: 2639: 2591: 2566: 2558: 2534: 2487: 2473: 2466: 2436: 2428: 2392: 2348: 2341: 2294: 2287: 2280: 2244: 2237: 2200: 2193: 2144: 2137: 2123: 2101: 2094: 2080: 2050: 2043: 1999: 1992: 1948: 1941: 1934: 1897: 1890: 1883: 1846: 1795: 1788: 1746: 1739: 1702: 1557: 1402: 1372: 1198: 1107: 956: 812: 6479: 7246: 7224: 7160: 7079: 7057: 6880:, and restore it for use as an information office and operating base, although track will be re-laid (possibly towards Wellow) as part of the route reopening. The New S&D also started restoring Spetisbury station in Dorset in cooperation with Dorset County Council; this was to echo the role of Midford but with the addition of refreshment facilities. However, the Spetisbury group is now independent, see below. 5806: 4982: 4486: 4478: 3775: 3550: 7182: 5004: 4952: 4918: 4859: 4769: 4739: 4702: 4580: 4501: 4431: 4417: 2230: 2186: 2130: 2087: 1927: 1876: 1825: 1781: 1732: 1679: 11582: 5963: 5379: 3136: 6876:, capacity restraints on the existing railway network and inefficiency in other forms of transport.

S&YR station. The S&YR provided a track from the point of junction back to their station, and DCR trains arriving from Cole had to reverse from the junction to the S&YR station. It is unlikely at this early date that through running (without calling at Templecombe) was contemplated, and the DCR spur probably did not connect directly into the S&YR main line.

The new line ran alongside the Wimborne line for the first two miles to Corfe Mullen and the cut-off carried its first goods traffic on 14 December 1885, and was fully brought into use on 1 November 1886. It is not clear why the ten-month delay took place, but it may be connected with objections from the town of Wimborne at the obvious loss of train services. 104: 5930:, and when a railway from London to Dorchester was being planned, no importance was attached to the coastal area.
