The Weston, Clevedon and Portishead Light Railway (WC&PR) was 13.8 mile long, running along the coast between the three North Somerset towns. It opened in 1897 and extended to Portishead in 1907. The company was never a success and passed into the hands of receivers 1909 but continued to run under the control of the receiver and light railway advocate Colonel Holman F Stephens. He was succeeded by his deputy W. H. Austen in 1931. World War 2 saw the end of this impecunious little line with its few remaining assets passing to the GWR and salvaged track used for the war effort.

During the last decade of the lines' existence the principal motive power was two ex-LB&SCR Terrier class 0-6-0 tank engines and a couple of early petrol railcars. The second Terrier, purchased from Southern Railway in 1937, became no. 4 and, in WC&PR livery, is the subject of this exclusive model in Weston, Clevedon & Portishead livery.

The small Dapol Terrier offers the modeller the chance to create a small layout or working diorama based on the light railway, so we are planning a series of commissioned goods wagons from the businesses along the WC&PR. These wagons will be following later and we will open these for ordering once we have set a production date.

Further information on the life and times of the Weston Clevedon & Portishead Railway can be found on the WC&P Railway Group website at http://wcprgroup.org.uk/index.html
