This is the track progress made so far. The diagram will be updated as we replace the line. Green track shows the parts replaced and red shows the areas that need to be completed. Each sleeper on the diagram represents 10 sleepers of the actual track.

Railtrack students and their tutor Neil from Northumberland College here in Ashington are now working with us.
We have created a joint venture which is mutually beneficial as not only does it facilitate further practical experience for the students but also helps us in the re-laying of the track. It was a pleasure working with you all and we look forward to seeing you next time.
It makes us very proud to be able to work with other organisations within the local community .
