Meanwhile, on the other side of Plymouth, the Stonehouse Pool Improvement Company had been formed to create a quay that large vessels could use at all states of the tide. It proposed to build a railway connection to Devonport station which the LSWR agreed to rent, and this opened for freight traffic on 1 March 1886. From 1904 to 1910 transatlantic passengers joined fast London boat trains at the quay. 670:. It follows the river and crosses it shortly after leaving the GWR route at Cowley Bridge Junction. From here to Yeoford it follows river valleys, but the next stage of the route, through Okehampton and Lydford, takes it around the northern edge of Dartmoor.

Indeed, it was the highest point on the whole of the Southern Railway, at 950 feet (290 m) above sea level. 504: 443: 395: 1764: 1757: 1585: 1431: 2811: 2515: 2422: 1698: 1490: 1438: 2801: 2753: 2625: 2581: 2481: 2368: 2324: 1885: 1658: 1424: 1196: 985: 879: 480: 248: 2793: 2508: 2415: 2302: 2172: 2088: 2074: 2030: 2016: 1863: 1841: 1794: 1716: 1553: 1497: 1468: 1404: 1380: 1203: 1040: 1026: 992: 872: 2868: 2818: 2760: 2081: 2023: 1750: 1676: 1668: 1650: 1593: 1577: 1189: 1033: 978: 850: 2849: 2726: 2689: 2632: 2179: 1932: 1907: 1706: 1623: 1358: 1311: 1167: 956: 2719: 2682: 2451: 2444: 2390: 2346: 2280: 2258: 2236: 2206: 2199: 2135: 1939: 1816: 1724: 1525: 771: 2826: 2603: 2559: 2488: 2052: 1258: 1233: 799: 2537: 2142: 2110: 1988: 1333: 1286: 1139: 1114: 1089: 1064: 934: 909: 825: 526:

Access to Plymouth was inconvenient as LSWR trains had to run over the GWR's lines from Lidford to Plymouth and Devonport, most of which was just a single-track where GWR trains were given precedence.
