Tyne Valley line to reopen in full on Monday - great job Network Rail

This has been a massive engineering task and Network Rail and the dozens of men on the site have moved more than 35,000 tons of soil and debris. I have inspected the site and met the team. The pictures below show some of the mess the giant landslip caused. This all occurred in January. Many are quick to criticise Network Rail but I have nothing but praise for them on this job. Local people should be really grateful.
