Was he voted in on promises to invest £20 million into a railway station that lost services after it was one of the least used railway stations on the entire network?
The reason why it was least used station on the network.
For a number of decades there was only ever a parliamentary train service. Which in words was one service each way a week. Used to be on a Saturday morning, then changed to a Sunday morning.
So that is the reason of hardly any passengers using the station.
