    With respect, that’s not really evidence. We all know about one particular landowner, but I don’t think it is possible to assume that they are influencing others without some actual evidence of it happening.
    Moving the railway offline in the enpa area is a non starter-you would never get planning permission for something that would be seen to be unnecessary construction/disturbance of the park. Rebuilding something that has already made its mark seems to be accepted.

    Quite true, but...in the longer term with a reconstructed line southwards to, and through, PE then - not being part of the original trackbed - it will no longer be needed anyway.

    Why would we want to move it anyway? When we already own all the trackbed from Killington Lane around to the Parracombe halt site
