There's York, Shildon and Swindon, could Wolverton join the family of rail static display, shelter for heritage clutter rotting and lost for want of TLC, rolling stock repairs capacity and space, college and research library centre and attracting visitors on a nationwide basis to the area, including by rail? If that is your vision, the government finds money for such and with solar panels on the roof, can a team be created to research, apply for funding and put a plan together with professional support and input please?
BRTA is small and has no money. But we support the idea, Wolverton has a proud railway history, Milton Keynes (Bletchley) likewise and former London North Western Railway (LNWR) designs and college courses, skill retention and certification courses could all be under one roof.
It needs a vision, a team, incremental funding and growth to fullest potential.
The Universal Theme Park, a ride away by rail from Bletchley will attract 55, 000 people per month and create 26, 000 new jobs. So many more are coming to and from and the Railway Centre at Wolverton would complement that and capitalise on such a regional influx of people, service spend and wider area boost?
May I ask your views and maybe meet with Simon and others to explore it further and what can be done now, then and medium term to bring it about/court the government's attention? ceo@brtarail.com
