Ashington, Blyth & Tyne Line Summer Charter - Sold Out!


As part of its campaign to see the line re-opened permanently to passenger traffic, SENRUG has received sponsorship from GO WANSBECK to charter a train to run round the line as far as Ashington.

'The Ashington Future' will run on Saturday 7th June 2008 and will make 3 separate round journey trips.

More details can be found on this dedicated page.
