    Network Rail (NR) gives Great Central Railway (GCR) "Bridging the gap" go-ahead

    Thanks E50019 - that explains the situation (and your comment) well. It does seem that the reconnection will be about far more than just putting the infrastructure in. It would be nice to think that they are already thinking about things like this
