[imgl=ymp3]Pen Mill Station, Yeovil[/img]Yeovil has two railway stations - Pen Mill and Junction - on different lines. Pen Mill is served by Bristol to Weymouth trains, and Junction is served by London to Exeter services. There's a line linking the two but at present it doesn't carry and scheduled passenger trains - it's largely used for diversions when other lines aren't available.

[imgr=ypm2]Signal Box - Yeovil Pen Mill[/img]The signals and signal box at Yeovil use rodding (for the points) and wires (for the signals) which are of the old semaphore type - it's a true piece of history.
