Ashington Blyth & Tyne Line

Many thanks to SENRUG Committee Member Trevor Watson for pointing out I have been quoted in the prestigious Rail Magazine (issue 786) not just once, but twice (pages 11 and 17). Though longstanding SENRUG supporters might be a bit bemused by Rail’s comment that SENRUG is supporting the Council’s plans. It was of course SENRUG that started the campaign and in the early days the Council did not support it at all. Thankfully, things started to change rapidly after SENRUG’s 2008 Charter train to Ashington and we are of course delighted the Council is now taking ownership of the plan.
