Dawlish rail closure cost UK economy £1.2 billion

A report from the Devon Maritime Forum has claimed the closure of the mainline railway linking Devon and Cornwall could have cost the UK economy as much as £1.2 billion. Train services were cut after tracks were destroyed at Dawlish in early 2014 during severe storms. The forum said “all industries were hit” by the destruction of the line.
