The railway line between Exeter – Plymouth is set to become more reliable to passengers. A series of improvements will be made to six separate sections on the Devon line, starting with more than two weeks of intensive work at the Marley Tunnel, Dawlish sea cliff and Plymouth station in January.

The scheme to bring the disused Gwuan-Cae-Gurwen (GCG) railway line back into use as a working freight line has entered a vital stage with the line coming into operation, starting with test trains running today.
