Planning Permission Granted For The First New Railway Station On The Northumberland Line
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on ITV.
The station concerned is Ashington station.
One of the reasons, I wrote this post, is that the ITV article has a very good map of the railway being reopened.
These two paragraphs describe the station’s features.
The new platform will be approximately 100 metres long, with a range of facilities including waiting shelters, CCTV, help points and lighting.
Plans also include car park providing up to 270 spaces including 17 accessible spaces and 18 electric vehicle charging bays.
It also gives the reopening date of the railway as 2024, when the service will be a half-hourly one between Newcastle and Ashington stations that should take thirty-five minutes.
