Settle-Carlisle Line was closed by snow, now open again
SETTLE -.CARLISLE BULLETIN
Thursday 1st March 2018.
The quite dreadful weather conditions ruling over the past few days have finally resulted in services on the Settle- Carlisle Line being suspended until further notice.
With a strong wind now resulting in drifting in the cuttings, the extreme cold creating ( presumably) large icicles in the tunnels and the difficulty experienced by key staff in reaching their place of work, there was no option but to close the railway meantime.
