Can anyone recommend any decent positions along this line , ideally for westbound freights. Tempted to cop the theale to margam tanks at some point and I'd like to do it lineside.

Not much on trainspots that isn't 10+ years old, and with overhead wires now best method is to ask like-minded individuals

I've seen a few bridges like west Portal of Old Sodbury tunnel there's a bridge, but has anyone got any suggestions , ideally lineside or blend of lineside and bridge whichever thanks

Has anyone tried fosse way bridge ? Looks quite good through the railings looking Easterly

That bridge was closed off when I walked from Blagrove to Mannington a couple of weeks ago. Not sure for how long, I didn't stop to read the notice.

I thought the Theale - Robeston tanks now go via the Berks & Hants line, then through Bradford-on-Avon to Bath and up Filton Bank. Or am I thinking of something else?
