LNER says the timetable will mean quicker journeys, but opponents say smaller stations will miss out.
A campaign group says a railway line's new timetable is "bad" for north-east England., due to come into operation in December 2025, mean Morpeth will lose three LNER northbound and two southbound services, as well as a "vital" commuter service from Alnmouth.
According to the published timetable for December 2025, Alnmouth will lose one of its busiest commuter servicesThere will also be more TransPennine Express services between Newcastle, Morpeth, Alnmouth, Berwick and Edinburgh Waverley. Shipping lawyer Mark Church, who uses the Alnmouth train every day, said: "The train has always been incredibly busy, up to 100 people get on at Alnmouth every day."The timetable from Alnmouth makes no sense, you have times when there are three trains close together, then long periods with no services at all.
