Very useful morning giving a road tour of the Ashington Blyth & Tyne Line to Tobyn Hughes, Director of Rail at NECA (North East Combined Authority). Accompanied by Committee Member Trevor Watson (also Chair of Railfuture North East), we started at Morpeth and went to Ashington then Woodhorn then back to Bebside, Newsham, Seaton Delaval, Seghill and finishing at Northumberland Park for Tobyn’s return metro home. Tobyn will be an important ally in moving the project forward.
