TRANSLATION:
Trains are now running between Newquay and Par after the completion of the latest phase of a project to provide coast-to-coast rail travel in Cornwall.
As part of the £56.8m Mid Cornwall Metro project, a new passing loop at Goss Moor has been built, and 400m of track at St Blazey has been replaced.
There were also repairs carried out to the 152-year-old Ponts Mill viaduct and new signals installed between Newquay station and Goonbarrow signal box.
The MCM project expects to provide an hourly direct train service connecting Newquay, Par, St Austell, Truro, Penryn and Falmouth.
"Through trains from Newquay to Falmouth, via Par, St Austell and Truro, will follow in 2026."
MCM is funded by the government and Cornwall Council and is being delivered by Network Rail in partnership with the council and Great Western Railway.

TRANSLATION
A new website has been launched to connect landowners with businesses looking to offset their environmental impact.
LINC: Cornwall's Natural Capital Exchange, works by connecting people who own land with businesses who will pay them for projects which benefit nature, in return for the carbon credits it creates.
Credits work by allowing businesses to offset their own emission figures by paying for environmentally-friendly projects elsewhere.
Developed by Exeter University, the system works by matching organisations, projects and landowners and deciding a fair price for the trade.

TRANSLATION
A neglected donkey saved from an abattoir by a Cornish animal sanctuary has given birth.
The donkey, named Finty had arrived at the Flicka Foundation in Penryn a year ago in a bad way.
She had been neglected for many years and was about to be taken to the abattoir, along with her companion donkey Frieda, following the death of her owner, said the charity.
Flicka director Judy Giles said it had been an "incredible privilege" to witness the "miracle" of Finty giving birth to a healthy foal, despite her previous neglect.
Ms Giles said staff had not known Finty was pregnant when she arrived at the sanctuary as it could take some time for donkeys to show signs due to their long gestation period.
Describing the condition of the rescued pair, the charity said they had been emaciated, dirty, suffering a skin condition and had difficulty walking.
Frieda recently died despite receiving specialist care, the sanctuary said.
Finty had to be monitored closely while she recovered and throughout her pregnancy, but is now thriving at the sanctuary and has safely given birth.
