Yesterday ... more to do in Weymouth. I'll probably be there again for the next two Sundays, and certainly not running out of things to see and do. The Rodwell Trail is the path of the old railway from Weymouth via Wyke Regis to Fortuneswell and Easton. Dominic, Sion and myself took the walk to the Ferry Bridge and the bus back (every 15 minutes, even on Sundays). Really good trip .. and many thanks to Sion and Dominic for their work at Weymouth station and on the train. The presence of the TransWilts team in both direction was a reassurance for people who've not travelled by rail before, and were unsure which train to catch to get back home.
