Doc Martin RR station?
Author: CPR_4000

Every once in a while the Doc Martin TV show has a scene set at a railroad station. I'd guess it's on a preservation railway, but which one and where? Tonight we watched one of the early Doc Martin "movies" (before the series) and the train was green and yellow with a turbocharged power car on each end. What was that? Sounded good.

Is this the scene you are asking about?
Hopefully, seeing the scene might prompt an answer.

Yes, that's when he arrives at Port Isaac. There are better views of the train and station in daylight when his wife goes back to London around 1:22 in the movie.

In one scene the station name shows as Bodmin Parkway and there's a small yard in the background.

Aha! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodmin_Parkway_railway_station

"Great Western Railway manage the station and operate most of the train services, although CrossCountry operate some long distance services. The Bodmin and Wenford Railway operating a heritage service on the branch to the town on certain days."
