Route
From Meldon Junction:
- Maddaford Moor Halt (opened 1926)
- Ashbury
- Halwill
- Dunsland Cross
- Holsworthy
- Whitstone & Bridgerule
- Bude
Halwill was originally called Halwill & Beaworthy; from 1887 it was called Halwill Junction, and finally plain Halwill from 1923.
Col Cobb shows a "first station" and a later "second station" to the east of, and replacing the first one. However this is misleading; when the line was extended from Holsworthy to Bude, so re-location of sidings was necessary, but the station as a whole, and the passenger platforms, remained in their original position.

Famous quotes containing the word route:
“A Route of Evanescence
With a revolving Wheel—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
