In the year 1963 Dr. Beeching's report was published. After that 5000 miles of local railway were abandoned and more than 2000 small stations were closed. It seems they were not used enough. There was a railway between Truro and Newquay, through St Agnes and Perranporth. You can still see remnants of it – banks and viaducts, though the iron rails have gone (used for many fence posts). The stations now have small industrial units and craft workshops. Now the Conservative Party would like to open up some of the lines again, but would £500 million be enough money? And will they find the lines?
