Notes
Best viewed on a laptop or desktop or large tablet.
The Minehead Branch gradient diagram was first redrawn in 1979 from official WSR documents, then digitised in 2014, and re-digitised in 2023.
The three Norton Triangle gradient diagrams are derived from Lidar data from data.gov.uk and the resulting values (prefixed with '~') are indicative only, and are not official WSR values.
The diagrams on this page are not official WSR documents.
