This is awesome, although I believe this is south of Exeter instead of Hensall, that green co-op is a small operation on kirkton road.

This is just (one crossing) south of exeter. I was there a month ago. The scene has not changed other than the tracks have not seen a train in a good long time, 10 years? Tracks are still in place though.
