Disused railway at Endon Passenger services on the line between Stoke on Trent and Leek were withdrawn in 1956 although freight trains continued to run until 1988. The route is officially mothballed and the track has never been lifted although inevitably after 35 years nature has taken over. At the time of writing hopes were high that a passenger service would eventually be reinstated as one of the projects forming the government's 'Network North’ programme. Clearly, however, a great deal of work will have to be done.
