A Railway to Consett?

At our next meeting we’re delighted to welcome Don Kent, one of the North East’s most passionate and persistent champions of rail transport.
Since the 1990s, Don has been at the forefront of campaigns to improve rail connectivity across the region, from the reopening of the Leamside Line to promoting bold new ideas for the future of transport in the North East.
Born and raised in Consett, Don is now leading the vision for a rail link between Consett and Newcastle.
His proposal makes use of existing disused trackbeds, minimises street running, and sets out a practical and achievable route for restoring this vital connection.
Join us to hear Don explain the vision, the opportunities it could bring, and how this long-discussed rail link could become a reality.
Everyone is welcome!
