The idea was the brainchild of a volunteer from the Friends of the Atlantic Coast Line. (FoCal). It led to a near doubling of passengers using the station, from 3731 in 2010 to 6786 in 2012. Congratulations, Bugle ... from the picture, it looks like the upgrade has encouraged an enhancement of track work and rolling stock too ... ;) :D ;D Title: Re: Bugle Scoops National Award Post by: chuffed on December 19, 2013, 17:36:11 Tan tan tara taraaaaa...lets have a fanfare for Bugle !
