The Beck line has been restarted by Alex Farlie. Here's a quote from elesewhere.
Hello.
I am also pleased to announce that I am restarting the Beck Line as a Route for BVE 4.
As I've been unable to trace James Roberts, David McCormick or Paul White, certain sections of the route
and associated background context will have to be re-developed using original content.
A website for the Beck Line is also being considered,
As this is likley to be developed as part of an assignment
for a course I'm on, ALL material on it must have associated 'paperwork.
So folks, I need material and 'paperwork' on ANYTHING
Beck Line related!
Thanks
Alex
