Reopening Oswestry railway line 'vital for future prosperity'
Labour's Shadow Transport Minister says the party would reconnect Oswestry to the mainline rail network if voted into power.
Ahead of this month's North Shropshire by-election, Tan Dhesi visited the town to see for himself the railway line closed during the Beeching cuts of the 1960s.
Labour's candidate in the contest, Ben Wood, says reopening the line and improving bus transport links is essential to the constituency.
Ben has been working as a transport advisor for the Labour Party at Westminster, looking at transport issues across Britain.
