Been watching the camera today to see how the bad weather is developing.  In the last couple of hours it has moved to show more of the sea than the railway.  Not sure if that is deliberate or the wind caught it!

EDIT:
Of course as soon as I posted that it swung back again!  Interesting to note normally when I look at it there are 20-30 viewers, at the moment there are 640!

It appears to be offline - I wonder if it has been washed away!

railcam.org.uk have explained that their host in Dawlish has sold the property to which the webcam was attached. They are, according to their Facebook page, working their socks off to find another location in Dawlish for a webcam, and hope to have the camera rehoused sometime soon.

Meanwhile, as is the way with the internet, here's a picture of a cat... caught on another lineside webcam:

This rather fun webcam has gone behind a pay wall. You will see this message now:

I guess we will never know, but I wonder how many will pay those prices to look at it.

For what you are getting in terms of quality, I think it's a very good price.
