The terminus of the Swindon & Cricklade Railway's southern extension will be a new station in Mouldon Hill Country Park. The pictures on this page show that some quite significant progress has already been made.
The way in A new embankment has already been constructed to carry the line into Mouldon Hill. Here it is, complete with the culvert and storm drains required by local residential development. culverts
Trackbed Complete with new ballast, this is the trackbed laid on the embankment shown above. Just visible top right is a bridge carring Swindon's Northern Distributor Road. trackbed
New work on the trackbed Work has started to complete the route into Mouldon Hill. Vegetation has been cleared from the trackbed, and remedial work on bridges etc will soon be in hand. route clearance
This is what we are aiming for! This picture was taken last summer, in Hayes Knoll station. We built Hayes Knoll on a very similar site, so we have had a bit of practise! train in platform
