The stations are described from north to south. They all closed on 7 October 1963 unless stated otherwise.
Bampton Bampton station opened on 1 August 1884 on the west side of
Bampton. South West England. It was a passing place so had two
platforms for passengers and also a
goods shed. It dispatched a lot of stone from local quarries. It was renamed "Bampton (Devon)" in June 1911 to avoid confusion with another GWR
Bampton station in
Oxfordshire. After the line closed the station was demolished, and the cutting in which it was situated was largely filled in.
Cove Halt This was the first of the small stations that were opened along the line during the 1920s. A siding had been provided when the line opened near the
level crossing in the village of
Cove, and a simple platform with a corrugated iron
pagoda shelter was opened for passengers on 9 June 1924. The level crossing keeper had a cottage and small
signal cabin, both of which have survived as a house.
Bolham Halt Another small station, this concrete platform was opened on 23 April 1928. It had a corrugated iron shelter with a simple sloping roof. It served the village of
Bolham.
Tiverton The station at
Tiverton opened in 1848 as the terminus station of a
broad gauge branch line from the Bristol and Exeter main line at . It was reconstructed with extra platforms in the 1880s to accommodate the Exe Valley trains. After the closure of the Stoke Canon to Morebath line, Tiverton continued to be served from Tiverton Junction until 5 October 1964 (passengers) and 5 June 1967 (goods).
West Exe Halt This station was opened on 19 March 1928 to serve the western side of Tiverton and Heathcoat's Mill, a major employer in the town. It was equipped with a wooden shelter, and the original platform was almost doubled in length in May 1937. It was generally unstaffed, but at busy times a porter was sometimes sent from Tiverton to collect and sell tickets.
Cadeleigh This station opened on 1 May 1885 to serve the villages of
Cadeleigh and
Bickleigh and was therefore known as 'Cadeleigh and Bickleigh' until 1 May 1906 when it was changed to just 'Cadeleigh'. As a passing place it had two platforms and also a busy goods yard. After the railway was closed it was used by the county council, but in 1997 it was sold and is now used as the
Devon Railway Centre.
Burn Halt This small platform with a wooden shelter was opened on 26 January 1929 to serve Burn Farm and the parish of
Butterleigh.
Up Exe When the line opened in 1885 a platform was provided on the east side of the track near the hamlet of
Up Exe with the name 'Up Exe and Silverton', although a
Silverton railway station already existed on the
Bristol to Exeter line to serve that village. From 1 May 1905 the Exe Valley station was renamed 'Up Exe'. It was provided with a small stone building for passenger use and a house for the station master, although it never had a goods yard. A small
signal box was provided next to the level crossing. From 1 October 1923 the staff were withdrawn from the station and it was designated 'Up Exe Halt'. The station master's house was then used by the level crossing keeper, and the station buildings became a house while the passengers were given a small iron shelter. Both of the houses remained in use as such after the closure of the line.
Thorverton The station serving
Thorverton village opened with the railway in 1885. Two platforms were provided as it was a passing place. The main buildings and goods yard were on the southbound side, while a wooden shelter was provided on the opposite platform for passengers travelling towards Tiverton. The station master had a house to the north of the station. The village was not on a main road and had no bus service with the result that the station was one of the best-used on the line and also generated a lot of freight due to nearby Thorverton Mill, a watermill that was connected to the station by a siding.
Camp coaches were based here from 1936 to 1939 which provided accommodation for holiday visitors. Thorverton closed to passenger traffic with the rest of the Exe Valley line on 7 October 1963. Goods traffic ceased on 4 May 1964. Both the station and the stationmaster's house remain in use as houses, the former extended using stone from the demolished goods shed.
Brampford Speke The station at
Brampford Speke was a single platform on the west side of the line that opened with the line in 1885. Unusually there was no road access, passengers reached the station via a footpath from the village. It was provided with the usual building for passengers and a house for the station master. It had a signal box until 1907 but never any goods yard. It was closed for the whole of 1917 and 1918 as a wartime economy measure. From 1 October 1923 the staff were withdrawn and the station designated 'Brampford Speke Halt'. As at Up Exe, the station building became a house and passengers used an iron shelter instead. Both this and the station master's house continue to be used as private houses. As of 2021-07-05, this was listed as on sale, and the original station can still be clearly distinguished. ==Services==
