The 14-mile railway line connecting Market Harborough and Northampton was shut in 1981

Campaigners and politicians have discussed plans to reopen a railway line closed more than 40 years ago.

Market Harborough and Northampton used to be connected by a rail link that was opened in 1859, but shut in 1981. Campaigners are calling for the 14-mile route to be restored and said it would benefit both commuters and tourists while taking cars off the road.
