Taking stock at Tavistock

THE article ‘Return to Tavistock’ (April issue) was interesting in general, but having seen the before and after pictures on page 38, I do wonder what the specific plan will be for getting rail to and through Tavistock town? Andrew Harris Whitby, Ontario THE photograph accompanying the ‘Return to Tavistock’ article was very evocative. I was condemned to boarding school and served the last five years of my ‘sentence’ at a school in Tavistock. Fifteen times a ‘West Country’-hauled train carried me away from school, and the up platform was thus a place of great happiness! Nigel Bond Christchurch, Dorset
