    The intention is that it will be first used in 2028. I suspect that the track will be complete before then. However, there's fencing, wiring, tree planting, crew training, route proving and a whole host of imponderables to be dealt with before...

    Lynwood tunnel takes the railway under the B2028. See https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4513763 I believe the railway had a lease on the tunnel and had to make a decision whether to renew it or not.

    AIUI just standard maintenance. The Bluebell owns the trackbed and is maintaining fencing, drainage etc so that the option is there in the future to extend if desired, but I don’t believe there is any significant change beyond that watching...

    It is a good job we only use oil and gas for transport fuels. It we were to use it for other things like road surfaces, pharmaceuticals, plastics for insulation, fertilizer, then we would still need some for these products, but as it is only...
