Fenland's Wisbech Should have Rail line Re-instated.


There is still a Railway station in the market town of March, Cambridgeshire but some of the other Fenland market towns are cut off from Rail today. One of the most notable places is Wisbech. A big town like Wisbech in Fenland Cambridgeshire should be reconnected to the main rail lines.
 
This is a clip from 1963 in March. The station still remains, though I don't think it is as busy as it once was. The Wisbech connection should be reconsidered and there is a local campaign to reinstate a rail line at Wisbech. I hope it comes true because I think it would be good for the Fenland.

Wisbech did once have a rail station that was built in 1848. However, it was shut down in 1968. Today many feel that this was a mistake and Wisbech should be re-instated.
