What it asks
Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to take the necessary action and make representations to the appropriate bodies to stop the overnight running of freight trains on the Stirling-Alloa-Kincardine railway line.
What the petitioner did first
Three public meetings were held in Causewayhead, Stenhousemuir and Clackmannan at the instigation of the Community Councils of those areas. Dr Richard Simpson MSP attended the first two of the meetings. The Clackmannan meeting had a panel consisting of Gordon Banks MP, Richard Simpson MSP and Keith Brown MSP as well as two representatives of Transport Scotland. Network Rail and DB Schenker turned down the invitation to attend.
In addition to this, numerous residents living along the Striling-AlloaKincardine line have contacted their own Councillors and MPs, and I understand some have applied for compensation.
