Tonight was meeting no 4 at Seghill. Some interesting discussion, especially about a proposed new housing development at New Hartley which (based on current plans) remove the possibility of ever having a station on the re-opened Ashington Blyth & Tyne line here. Whilst a station at New Hartley is not currently planned, SENRUG agrees that planning developments along the line should not be permitted to rule out future stations or double tracking, either of which might be required as passenger numbers increase.
