Borderside Line

The Borderside Line is a railway line from Newcoast in Newborder to Bleckmouth in the Greater Border Region, via Falkbury, Bordertown, and Bleckbridge. The line was built in 1954 as part of the post-WW2 expansion of SR (now Bayrail). Trains on the line run under the Greater Border Region-owned Coast Express brand.
== Service ==
Passenger services on the line are currently operated by SVL Bayland under the Coast Express brand. Local trains run 1tph on the full route in offpeak hours, and 1tph on half of the route (Newcoast-Bordertown and Bleckmouth-Bordertown) during peak hours. Regional trains run 1tph on the full route in peak hours.
Bayrail also runs night trains on the line. Due to low demand, these night trains are some of the shortest night trains in Bayland.
In addition to the passenger services, Bayrail operates multiple freight trains per day on the line.
Previously, the line had been operated by Bayrail under the Coast Express brand, after the region-owned GBR Rail took over services on the line in 2016 and established the Coast Express brand. Before 2016, the line was operated as a regular part of the Bayrail network.
== Line standard ==
The line speed on most of the line is 130km/h, although between Bleckmouth and Bleckbridge it is 140km/h. The line was electrified in 1977, due to fears of another oil crisis. The line is single track with 400m passing loops.
