Transpennine Express and Northern Rail Franchise Renewals Stakeholder Consultation
APPENDIX 3 TransPennine Express and Northern Rail Franchise Renewals Stakeholder Consultation Response from the Furness Line Community Rail Partnership Contents 1. Summary of Key Points 2. Background 3. Existing Services 4. CRP Preparation for Consultation 5. The Consultation Principles and Proposals 6. Key Response Points from the Furness Line Community Rail Partnership 7. Answers to Consultation Questions Annex A Furness Line Study by The Railway Consultancy Annex B Fares comparison 1. Summary of Key Points 1.1 The current service on the Furness Line is unfit for purpose: o there is a strong case for the retention, and restoration of previous levels of service between Barrow-in-Furness and Manchester Airport; o local services on the line are failing to provide for key markets, particularly commuters wishing to travel west towards Barrow and Ulverston; o the timetable is uncoordinated and irregular and fails to provide adequate capacity at key times. 1.2 Remapping, with potential loss of through services to Manchester, will result in: o over-crowding of TransPennine Scottish services south of Lancaster; o uncertainty of connections at Preston/Lancaster, where poor historical reliability results in passengers having to wait an unacceptable hour or more for the next train. o uncertainty of through connectivity with interchanges on the Northern Hub and HS2 developments. 1.3 Maintaining and improving the quality of rolling stock serving the route, especially on longer distance services, is a strong necessity. 1.4 Franchise planning needs to provide for massive growth in the local economy: o up to ??? new jobs in Barrow and Ulverston alone in next few years; o up to £17 billion investment on Cumbrian coast by mid 2020s. -

The recent spell of glorious weather prompts thoughts about the impact of climate on history. The great threat to local communities before modern times was harvest failure. Crisis mortality rates were often the result, not just of outbreaks of deadly disease; and the two sometimes combined. Cattle droving was fundamentally affected by climate, only getting underway sometime from mid-April once grass growth removed the need to use hay as fodder. Bees have rarely had such a good start as this year to their foraging season, reminding us of the significance of honey as the major sweetener before sugar became widely used. Cane sugar was first grown by the Portuguese in Brazil during the 16th century but entered the British market from the Caribbean only from 1650. Not until well beyond 1700 was it cheap enough to rival honey. The numerous bee boles and other shelters for straw skeps (hives) in Cumbria pay tribute to the care with which bees were kept. Beekeeping was no mere pastime but an activity of considerable economic significance. -
