If by some miracle it was to head north no doubt Sunderland would miss out or would ripping up the Sunderland / Boro railway east coast link and making that the HS2 line make sense. No expert on railway lines so wondering what the wise SMB would recommend for a HS2 link north of Leeds - would they just rip up the east coast mainline or would a new line have to be constructed ? I know the Leamside line keeps getting mentioned or is that just be for freight ? Crewe getting a new multi million pound railway station out of this HS2 (Stoke missing out and most upset) but that's ok as Sunderland station has some nice LEDs. Nil Desperandum.
