This four-way turnout served Dorchester (GWR) goods shed in the early 1900s. The shed had two tracks through it. It seems that the rails were ex-BG/MG bridge rails on longitudinal baulks.

Just caught this, rather late I know, but that is a lovely turnout. I'm a bit confused about the GWR as I thought that Dorchester was an LSWR station?

There were (still are?) two stations in Dorchester - South and West.  I'll leave working out which is which as an exercise for the reader ....

It is Dorchester West Dorchester South was the LSWR station with some very eccentric operating proceedures.
