A preserved railway on the site of the Seatonburn Waggonway and the Blyth and Tyne Railway. There were two railways running beside each other here and one (Backworth Colliery railway) has been converted into the path used by the Reiver's Route. This is a coast to coast route through Kielder Forest. The railway is shown as operational on the 1976 1:50,000 Ordnance Survey map.
