Grateful thanks to Bruce Wakley of @CRIL21 for a wonderfully informative presentation after our AGM yesterday! Wishing him and his colleagues ongoing luck with their campaign.

@Piethagoram @bbcemt @LilianGreenwood @aliciakearns Absolutely! Public money should not be wasted on infrastructure for long-distance road transport in this day and age. There are several rail ideas which could help Melton in our Strategy For Rail (S4R). See https://t.co/90JDhlujEm

@Piethagoram That would be cool, especially if incorporated into the upcoming redevelopment of the station area. 🙂

We are confident there is no shortage of possible solutions, given the necessary political will.

[Railfuture EastMids @RailfutureEMids]

We totally agree.

@RailfutureEMids This line really needed too. Rugby - Lutterworth - Leicester https://t.co/VG7v6ThobP

@GrumpyGit1960 The complete link is still the goal, but the art of the possible is important too. Contact @CRIL21 for the latest update and a chance to get involved with the campaign.

[Railfuture EastMids @RailfutureEMids]

One of our campaign priorities is the reopening to passenger services of the Ivanhoe Line between Leicester and Burton-upon-Trent. Rail freight is important, but Coalville people will be happier waiting at this level crossing for a train they might catch themselves!

[Railfuture EastMids @RailfutureEMids]

Megathanks to Simon Walton of @railfreightcom for an excellent, both entertaining and informative, presentation to the Branch on Saturday!

[Railfuture EastMids @RailfutureEMids]
