I might be wrong like!

SENRUG are unbelievable. 

The existing station, is in a place which is easy to access, via road crossings etc. What SENRUG actually want is an interchange with local buses.... Right, these buses that stop almost a mile away on the other side of Manor Walks.... In a place which is 'central to the town'.

The footbridge, where they want the station to be, is actually quite a long walk from the main shopping area (Asda, Sainsbury's etc). 

The existing station, is about as 'central to the town' as the proposed one. 

They wanted more parking spaces at Morpeth, following a new car park. Now that Northern Rail have introduced £2 all day parking tickets, there's now loads of spaces to choose from in the old car park!

FTPE services to Morpeth? That will be a good thing as long as FTPE accept Northern tickets...
