Has anyone considered reopening the line as a heritage line using steam engines? It could provide a transport link on weekdays using diesel engines, and then switch to steam engines for a tourist attraction at weekends. Maybe it could be funded privately by local investors?

I come down to Cranleigh on a semi regular basis and have to take a taxi from Guildford.... a reopened station at Cranleigh would be a great help and save me money ...

This is essential infrastructure if the large-scale housing developments around Cranleigh are to get the go ahead. Such building permission should only be granted on the condition that the housing developers pay to re-instate this rail-line.

This link is so important with the planned increase in housing in our village.

Cranleigh to Guildford is the most credible option and deserves active support - and strong support from Surrey County Council.

The case exists so just get on with it not not HS2 is it? Our victorian ancestors must be looking down in bewilderment. We were the nation of getting it done. However it will be defeated by a lobby group wanting to save the habitat of the lesser spotted something or other. All repeat all re opened lines and stations are proving a huge success

Living in West Sussex, another London option would be fantastic and also handy for trains to Reading where my parents live. More space needed at Guildford? Make it happen!

There's a good economic case for this as well as for the environment providing an alternative for a horrible commute

Rail travel is an environmental and economic no-brainer, especially when it is properly integrated with the rest of the network with sensibly timetabled and regular services.

Given the increase in population and the increase in road traffic congestion since this line was closed and noting that the downs link would not be adversely affected by the reinstatement it seems a 'no-brainer' to me to re-open the line. Go for it and good luck!
