Looking up the Consett railway path
View northeast up the section from Lydgett's Junction to Consett. There is currently (2020) a proposal to reopen this former line to provide a rail link to Tyneside for Consett. Any new line would follow this route, but the prospects aren't that good. It would cost a lot of money.
