56038 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 I noticed some groundwork’s beyond the terminal buffers at Tweedbank yesterday. Looks like it could be to form a run round loop? Can anybody confirm if that’s what’s happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingEdwardII Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Do you mean this stuff?: https://www.peeblesshirenews.com/news/19915275.borders-gateway-development-works-starts-tweedbank-project/ ...which seems to be a variety of commercial development at least partly associated with the station & railway.

ejstubbs Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 (edited) The "Borders Gateway project" ( it's an industrial estate with a LIDL and a Costa Coffee for heaven's sake) is on the other side of Tweedbank Drive from the railway: Nonetheless, the groundworks that 56038 spotted might indeed be related.

56038 Posted February 15, 2022 Author Share Posted February 15, 2022 Thanks for the info. The Gateway project is - fortunately! - adjacent to the station and these groundwork’s extend beyond the existing tracks and in line with the stated future railway line as shown on the map. It’s maybe only a hundred metres or so, but heading towards Hawick/Carlisle! (Or maybe is another coffee shop….) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
