Going solely by the location of the Milligans, the station offices and Burger King and where their water/drainage facilities will be - the most cost effective way, would be to place the toilets on that side of the station. If they went elsewhere, then there will be the costs associated with diverting or extending the pipes from the existing facilities or from the buildings on Fawcett Street.

RE: Northern Rail
It's great news that Arriva Rail North Ltd have won the Northern Rail franchise. I look forward to the improvements that are to come in the next two or three years. "Northern" and "Northern Connect" looks promising, especially for the lines that need the most investment (Newcastle to Carlisle and Newcastle to Middlesbrough).
It won't need much of a rebrand - especially that everything will be called either "Northern" or "Northern Connect". I look forward to travelling with "Northern" in the future. |

RE: Northern Rail
How would the branding work
Would Northern Connect simply be a brand under the Northern Banner or will Northern Connect be a seperate entity under the Arriva banner... if that makes sense 😀 |

Northern is the bog standard corporate brand and Northern Connect is the Max/Sapphire equivalent. 'Illegitimis non carborundum'

Forgot to mention the email that the current Northern are sending out. Exciting new service from April 1 It continues, giving a link that can be clicked to obtain further updates. I assume all passenger data will be forwarded on to Arriva, not too dissimilar to when VTEC emerged on the ECML. 'Illegitimis non carborundum'
