For the first time in 60 years, passenger services will now run along the Northumberland line.
When the 18-mile line opens, services will call at stations in Ashington, Seaton Delaval, Manors and Newcastle.
Northern will run two daytime services an hour from Monday to Saturday and one train per hour in the evenings and on Sundays. A journey along the entire route will take around 35 minutes and a single fare will cost no more than £3.
Take a look! 🚆
This Saturday's Yorkshire Dales Explorer sees a chance to join a @foscl Guided Walk see communityraillancashire.co.u… for more details or visit foscl.org.uk/ to find out more and about other guided walks. @northernassist @setcarrailway @Kazza_belle
