Buckley Railway

1965

The Buckley Gazette was published for a short while in the late 1960s. Below is a letter from the 3rd March 1967 issue.

 

RAIL TRACK QUERY

 

As a newcomer to Buckley, I have been surprised by the area of disused ralway lines and land and wondering whether anything is going to happen to them.

 

It seems a pity that this land is left unused. Will it eventually be used for housing?

 

I should like to know what plans are in store for this land and meanwhile who is responsible for its upkeep which is hardly like a beauty spot
