Location Edit

It is located on the East Coast Main Line railway, which runs between London King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley. Reston was once the location of the railway station and junction between the Berwickshire Railway and the ECML. Both the Berwickshire Railway and Reston station closed in the 1960s. However the reopening of Reston station was approved and construction began in March 2021.[1][2][3] A study published in 2013 proposed that East Linton and Reston stations be reopened.[4] Reston station re-opened on 23 May 2022 following completion of a £20m redevelopment.[5][6]

The A1 (Great North Road) runs to the east of the village.

Population Edit

The current population is about 450.
