Cumbrian Coast Line
Encyclopedia
The Cumbrian Coast Line is a rail route in North West England
, running from Carlisle
to Barrow-in-Furness
via Workington
and Whitehaven
. The line forms part of Network Rail route NW 4033, which continues (as the Furness Line
) via Ulverston
and Grange-over-Sands
to Carnforth
, where it connects with the West Coast Main Line
.
All the above constituents were absorbed into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway
in 1923.
. Services stop at all stations, although many are request stops, with the exceptions of Netherstown and Braystones, which are served by four trains a day in each direction.
In the December 2011 - May 2012 timetable, the following trains operate on weekdays:
Services are slightly altered on Saturdays. On Sundays there is no service between Barrow and Whitehaven, with three trains in each direction between Whitehaven and Carlisle.
In the aftermath of the 2009 floods, an extra hourly service between Maryport and Workington operated stopping at all stations in between, including the temporary Workington North
. These services were suspended in December 2010.
At Carlisle the lines connects to the: West Coast Mainline; the Settle-Carlisle Line; the Tyne Valley Line; the Glasgow South Western Line
; and the Caledonian Sleeper
service. At Barrow, there are connections to the Furness Line.
Due to restricted clearances on the northern section of this line, Class 150 and class 158 Diesel multiple units are barred from the route, therefore services are normally operated by Class 153 or Class 156 units. Although since 2006 Network Rail have eased clearance restrictions to allow Mark2, Mark3 coaching stock to operate the full route, although under strict instructions that all drop-light windows must be stewarded between Maryport-Carlisle. This has allowed many charter services to operate the full length of the Cumbrian Coast.
The Cumbrian Coast was given Community Rail
status in 2008, and has an active Community Rail Partnership working hard to develop the route.
