East Coast Line

The East Coast Line is a railway from Portsbury to Norsham. It passes through the regions of Portsburyshire, Eastern Bayland, and Newnorth. The railway was built partially by Bayrail and partially by 2 private railway companies.
==History==
The first part of the railway was opened in 1892 as the Portsbury-Brenstead Railway (PBRW), with another private railway called the Eastend Southern Railway (ESR) built a line north from Brenstead to Eastend in 1899. Both railways were bought by Bayrail in 1909. In 1924, Bayrail built an extension to the line to Helston, to connect with the Norsham Line. However, due to Eastend Central being built as a terminus station, trains had to reverse in Eastend, a problem that remains today. The line was electrified late for Bayland, with the first electric trains running in 1998.
==Line Standard==
The line is one of the slowest railway lines in Bayland, with a line speed of 80-110km/h. The line is electrified with the Baylandese standard 25kV 50Hz AC OHLE. The line is entirely single track with passing loops, except the parts of the line shared with other railways.
==Service==
Passenger services on the line are operated by Bayrail, with local trains, regional trains, and some intercity trains being operated on the line. The line has timber trains on the northern section, as the Helston area has heavy forest cover. Other freight trains are commonly seen on the line, although it is less of an important freight transport artery than other railways or roads in the area.
