How has the Borders Railway changed the towns and villages it serves? And what do its reopening and successes say about transport policy in Scotland?
This article in the Herald newspaper investigates, with comments from local residents in Newtongrange, Gorebridge, Stow and Galashiels. There’s a quote about Hawick’s lack of a railway from Campaign for Borders Rail’s Chair, Marion Short. David Parker, formerly leader of Scottish Borders Council is quoted extensively.
