has abstract	The Culm Valley Light Railway was a standard gauge branch railway that operated in the English county of Devon. It ran for just under 7+1⁄2 miles (12.1 km) from Tiverton Junction station on the Bristol to Exeter line, through the Culm valley to Hemyock. It was intended as a very low-cost scheme, but by the time it opened in 1876 had cost more than twice the originally anticipated budget and taken five times the expected time to complete. It was operated from the start by the Great Western Railway, who purchased the line outright in 1880. It was loss-making and underused until United Dairies built a creamery and milk products factory at Hemyock; their output became the dominant traffic. The line closed to passengers in 1963 but served the milk depot at Hemyock until 1975. (en) Die Culm Valley Light Railway war eine britische Eisenbahngesellschaft in Devon in England.

Der Bau der Strecke kostete 50.000 Pfund statt der geplanten 20.000 Pfund und dauerte zwei Jahre länger als geplant. Am 29. Mai 1876 erfolgt die Betriebsaufnahme. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt hatten die enttäuschten Eigentümer schon beschlossen, die Gesellschaft zu verkaufen. Im April erwarb die Great Western Railway die Gesellschaft für 33.000 Pfund. Im Rahmen der Beeching-Axt wurde der Personenverkehr am 9. September 1963 und der Güterverkehr am 6. September 1965 eingestellt. Bis zum Jahr 1975 wurde noch eine Molkerei bedient. (de)
