Tamerton Foliot railway station

Tamerton Foliot was a railway station, built by the Plymouth, Devonport and South Western Junction Railway on its line from Lydford to Devonport Kings Road and Plymouth Friary on the section that is now the Tamar Valley Line.

The station was a later addition to the PDSWJR route , the original intention had been to build a branch line to serve the village of Tamerton Foliot but this scheme was not proceeded with, and a passenger only station on the main line was opened instead in 1897. The station was poorly situated, being more than 2 kilometres from the village, and was consequently very underused once Tamerton came to be served by buses from Plymouth. In 1936, Southern Railway figures showed it was the company's least used station west of Salisbury with less than 1000 passenger journeys in the year.
