Tyne Valley Rail Users' Group (TVRUG) Company Profile, Contacts & Intelligence

Tyne Valley Rail Users' Group (TVRUG) Overview

The Tyne Valley Rail Users’ Group represents all those who have any interest in the rail service that runs from Newcastle to Carlisle. Some are regular rail users, some just occasional users, and others, such as Parish Councils, have an interest on behalf of their communities. The group was formed in March 2000 with the twin aims of improving the service offered to passengers along the line, and encouraging increased rail travel usage. The group lobbies the Train Operating Company (currently Northern Rail), the Department for Transport, Passenger Focus, Northumberland County Council, Cumbria County Council, Tyne Valley Community Rail Partnership, and others, on all public transport issues. Our successes to date include more trains stopping at many stations along the route, and ensuring the first train to Newcastle each day now stops at the Metrocentre. We have helped remove certain ticketing disparities, and improved publicity of ticket types. We have also helped secure refurbishment at Prudhoe and Hexham, and hopefully played a part in also seeing Hexham recently win Station of the Year (Medium Size), in the 2018 National Rail Awards. We continue to campaign, amongst other things, for more trains to stop at several more stations on the line, and for improved rolling stock to be introduced. In addition we regularly keep Northern informed of what it is really like to be one of their passengers.
