At Tiverton Borough Police Court on 25 June 1891 James Dally, 18, along with William Whitter 16 and Frederick Slater, 14, all of Tiverton, were charged with breaking a lock on the Exe Valley line of the Great Western Railway Co on the afternoon of Sunday April 26th. Mr. Rogers (solicitor) and Mr. Shattock (chief inspector) represented the Company. The case for the prosecution was that the three defendants, with another boy, left Tiverton for Bickleigh. Just beyond Ashleigh Court the defendants got on to the railway, and found a trolley chained up by the side of the line. Dally suggested that they should " have a game with it". With a stone Slater broke the padlock, and on the homeward journey the defendants placed one pair of the wheels upon the metals. Each defendant was fined 40s including costs, or one month's imprisonment with hard labour.
