    The Volks Electric Railway are proposing an extensive programme of improvements, including: Installing illuminated signage visible from the Pier to attract tourists to the heritage railway;. Restoring the Aquarium Station North Siding; Restoring the second siding at Aquarium station to create a second platform, which will increase the line’s capacity by allowing a three-car service to be run. Investing in a new accessible Railcar – making Volk’s Railway a tourist attraction accessible to everyone by investing in an accessible railcar for people with a disability. Installing a Shelter at Halfway Station – installing a purpose-built shelter at Halfway Station for the benefit of passengers waiting in all-weather conditions. Extending the railway to a new terminus at Black Rock to form part of the new Black Rock development.

    This is great news, we had to take my son out of his wheelchair and fold it up when we last visited, was less then ideal and luckily the train wasn't busy

    This sounds like a great news if approved - I appreciate the critical approach to signage upfront in the report. I haven't been to VER for ~20 years despite regular trips to Brighton. Most of the time I simply forget that its there even though as is pointed out in the document, it's <400 m from Palace Pier, probably the busiest part of Brighton seafront.
