Passengers have now made more than 2m journeys on the Northumberland Line - less than two years after it opened. The 18-mile railway line reopened to passengers in 2024 in a project led by the County Council, along with the Department for Transport, Network Rail and Northern.

Over 2 million customer journeys in less than 2 years - that’s the award winning #NorthumberlandLine, which continues to go from strength to strength. A real pleasure to celebrate and thank our colleagues, customers, campaigners and partners today in Newsham.

Big benefits if your train is cancelled, commence from Sunday 20th September. (To clarify, previously "Ticket Acceptance" was only on an agreed short-notice basis between Operators - now it is a formal standing protection). See webpage for more: gov.uk/government/news/your-… – at Maiden Law, England

Have you seen what #Newsham Station Adopters are planning for this Friday? It will certainly be a grand day out... Around 400 miles of travel on @northernassist to raise awareness and money for the End Polio Campaign. Have a read and support them. facebook.com/share/p/1EAbFE5…

We are very excited that Bedlington Station, the last on the line (for now? 🤔😉) is now open from today!
🎉 Big news for the Northumberland Line! 🚆 Bedlington Station officially opened today, Sunday 29 March, completing the full line. To mark the moment, we’ve captured a time lapse of the journey from Newcastle to Ashington. Take a look and watch the line come to life 👇 #NorthumberlandLine #Bedlington #RailTravel #NorthernTrains #Trains

It's open!!! – at Gateshead, England
A new era of connected travel is underway as Northumberland Park, the latest station on the Northumberland Line opened to passengers this morning (Sun, Feb 22). Council Leader Glen Sanderson was there to see the first train and said the scheme had surpassed all expectations.

It might be easier for the customer to understand. But it has implications for things like RTT, Timetabling and lots more. How realistically achievable do we think this is? – at Blaydon, England
How long before both Northumberland Park and Heworth stations have their platform numbering corrected to create a single coherent interchange at each? If we can get this tweet viral I'd say we can get it done in a month.

A very interesting evening at the Ashington and Blyth Community Partnership (and we were out of the rain) Lots of interest in railways and #communityrail. And we were able to explain that Community Rail really does make an impact!

A day of celebration, despite the rain! One million passengers! What a difference the railway makes to the communities, and we are looking forward to bringing #communityrail to the route.
One million passenger journeys made on the Northumberland Line. Thank you to all our partners including @N_landCouncil and @networkrail. All our staff who make it happen. And of course all our customers who've made those 1 million journeys.
