Appendix J Haddington Branch Line Survey
Appendix J Haddington Branch Line Survey AllanRail East Lothian Access STAG Physical feasibility of re-opening the Haddington Rail Branch Line Background The reopening of the Haddington Railway branch line from the East Coast Main Line (ECML) at Longniddry to Haddington is one of the options that are required to be considered in the East Lothian Access STAG. This initial report informs the appraisal work of the feasibility of re-opening the railway, some of the issues and problems that would need to be resolved, choices that are available and suggests an order of magnitude cost. Because the rest of the railway is electrified it is assumed that the Haddington branch will also be equipped with standard 25Kv overhead electrification equipment. The report is based on a physical site walk-over on 21 February 2019, carried out by David Prescott of AllanRail who has considerable experience in the initial development of re-opened railways in Scotland including walk-overs on the Stirling – Alloa – Kincardine, Airdrie- Bathgate and Borders Railway routes in the inception and pre-construction stages. This is not an engineering assessment, but an initial view based on observation and experience. The route is considered in the Longniddry to Haddington direction and the report is broken down into key route sections. Connecting to the ECML The ideal connection to the main line has several desirable operating and engineering requirements: · It should be on the Edinburgh side of Longniddry to minimise the occupation of the ECML; · It should provide as -

Society members can use their Saturday tickets on Sunday also, but must show their membership card and have their ticket endorsed on Saturday. As we say every year, because we believe it: Railwells has become a very special show in the railway modelling calendar. Once again it is being held in the delightful setting of Wells Town Hall. Railwells includes Scalefour Southwest as an integral part of this annual event. Scalefour Southwest is an annual part of the exhibition, and this year is joined by a special section for EM Gauge, complemented by demonstrators showing how to convert to and model in EM. The exhibition has two layouts under construction to show you how, Black Lion Crossing by Geoff Kent and Bristol Barrow Road by Robin Whittle. There will be at least 50 exhibits this year including 14 layouts, 17 traders, as well as how-to demonstrations and other displays with emphasis on layout and stock construction. Whether you are considering constructing a layout or not it is always interesting to see what someone else has done. All this will make the show well worth a visit. Refreshments Available all day, starting with breakfast baguettes and going on to ploughman's lunches and afternoon tea and cake. -

Redbank Railroad Snacks Are Laid out Perfectly
THE SUPERS REPORT MAR- 2013 Vol. 20 Issue 03 Thank you Bill. I thought the layout run well and the guys I brought with me were impressed. I MAP for March meet. am hoping that I can get my guest (the young one) to eventually be a Division member. He likes trains and I hoping to keep his interest. I got to run 2 trains. If you didn't get to run you missed out. Of course, the impressive run of the day was the over 50 car double stacks train with pushers. It left New York and ran all the way to Butler. The really impressive feat was up the hill to Mt. Jewitt and back down the other side. Great job by the engineers. Then what can I say about the great meal that NORA put on? If you walked away from there hungry... There is something wrong with you. Again thanks Nora and you too Bill. Next meeting will be at Howard Helman's. His layout, if you have never been there (and I hate to say this because Howard's head might get TOO big) models the Western Maryland and is really WHY ME ? great to operate on. Well, here we go again. To another scheduled Divi- sion meeting at Howards'. Now it's not that his Western Mary- See you next month. Rolly land layout isn't in really great shape and isn't fun to operate on. But I hate his layout, because it's always in great shape and everything is in it's place.
