Ash Junction to Tongham

Description

Dumpman Films reveals the charms the disused section of mainline that used to connect Guildford to Farnham in Surrey.

Starting with a view from the bridge at Ash junction, the route of the old track bed running west is seen, before tumbling into the bushes to see what remains at ground level.

A short stretch of track is walked, viewing various railway remains, before your cameraman hops on his battered Raleigh Chopper to travel west towards the first stop at Ash Green.

Ash Green station survives as a very attractive private residence and a number of views are captured of the station, platforms and other remaining clues.

Trundling west of Ash Green, further railway remains are spotted before drawing in to Tongham. The station at Tongham has been completely wiped off the map, but the site of it is shown.

Includes constant, well-informed commentary, reference to a vintage map and a slide show of stills taken during filming.
