Okehampton Station Reopens

Description
The Dartmoor line in Devon reopened on the 29th November 2021, so I took a trip down a few days later, to ride from Exeter to Okehampton, on what is a new daily service for the first time since 1972. It's a 40 minute journey, and is the first of hopefully many 'Restoring your Railway' projects to open up.
