Devon's railway history began when the main line from London reached Exeter in 1844. Links were soon built with Plymouth in 1848 and Barnstaple in 1854. On top of this, in the heyday of the railway age, Devon also boasted over 400 miles of branch lines and sidings - nearly all of them to disappear by the end of the 20th century.
