"As I argue in my latest book, the route to Fraserburgh should have been rationalised and developed as a key link for Buchan. Today, a new railway to Peterhead and Fraserburgh should be Scotland’s top-priority rail re-opening."

In partnership with
2026 Scottish Parliament Election
CNER fought May's 2026 Scottish Parliament election across seven of the ten constituencies that make up the North East Scotland Region. MSPs elected from these constituencies will represent the people for which these rail improvements will have the greatest impact.
Therefore, we asked each candidate standing in this election in these constituencies to pledge to represent this campaign and it's supporters by doing everything in their power if elected to:
These goals are realistic within the time period of the next 5 year session of parliament.
Candidates for the main parties who signed up to this pledge were given the opportunity to provide a quote to express their thoughts on our campaign's proposal. You can find these below.
We are proud to say we also secured an agreement to meet with Duncan Massey (Reform UK), and Yi-Pei Chou Turvey (Lib Dem).
