The extensive quarries in Vallis Vale were served by a private siding which left the Radstock Branch near Murtry Bridge on the Mells River. A line went as far as Whatley Quarry but was heavily restricted. In the 1970s a new line was built from Hapsford Junction, half a mile further along the Radstock Branch, to accommodate the long, heavy trains needed to carry the output from Whatley.
