I shall go check that out soon thank you! It is reasonably close and should make for some half decent pictures!

Hi All So, I love railway oddities, mostly historical ones, such as Newhaven Marine or 'Charilie' BR's last Shunting Horse for example. Recently I've been thinking how cool it would have been to have seen these things in action. Now I know there is nothing quite as odd as horse powered traction...

I was just wondering if anyone knew any stockists of OO6.5 stuff? If you don't know what OO6.5 is then it is Z (1:220) gauge track but with 1:76 scale trains to make it a 1'6'' to scale Narrow Gauge Railway. You can buy Z gauge stuff and adapt it, but as OO9 (which adapts N Gauge) has ready to...

Well I think we are all in agreement that Marine is interesting but pointless, and that Town is far more useful as an interchange with the ferries. So on that logic, Harbour serves no purpose and thus can be closed, and all Newhaven passengers just use the Town stop. Harbour should get pulled...

Disused stations are without a doubt on of my favorite aspects of the rail system in the UK. The reason being I feel the ones that are left extant just look awesome. So if anyone has good pics of disused stations that have just been left to rot I would love to see them. Here are some pictures...

Okay to quickly paraphrase what I feel the main points discussed so far: 1. Everyone agrees that Newhaven Marine station serves no purpose 2. It would make logical sense to close the station 3. But some people want to see it open for the nostalgia and others think it should just shut Okay...

Even if Newhaven Harbour is used for those industrial units - an increase a 500m maximum walk hardly seems like reason enough to keep the station open. If they close the station and invest what they were spending on upkeep at this station on improving Newhaven Town or simply reducing fares...

Okay so ignoring my idea of Marine becoming Platform 3 of Harbour (which was just a suggestion for interest sake), looking at the entire Newhaven situation... Just looking at Google maps shows that Newhaven Harbour is only 500 meters from Newhaven Town, which as another contributor has...

RTT does'nt show it making any stops at either Newhaven Town or Newhaven Harbour, so I have no idea what its doing? It certainly is not the parliamentary train. Also if anyone is interested I just got around to posting my pictures of the station when I visited back in April - they can be...

I would love for them to do this special - should do it anyway - regardless of closure!
