Hello there, this is my first post because...I don't live in ED (yet!).


We were looking at a house on Ivanhoe Road recently, and couldn't help noticing a railway line running about 20 metres from the bottom of the garden... Is it a noisy line? Do they run freight trains at night? Or does it just stop bothering you after a while?

Hello! We back on to the railway on Ivanhoe too.


In answer your questions - No it's not that noisy, it's not a freight line, very occasionally maintenance trains will go by at night but they are pretty quiet and you would only hear them if awake anyway, they are pretty rare though. You do get used to them and block them out after a while.

For some reason the evening trains are squeakier than the daytime ones but again, you get used to them, and they're more of a bother in the summer months when all windows are open.


It's a nice road to live on all in all, the trains really aren't an issue for us. :)

    • Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the guy who posted the rumours for the source of the information? The Crown & Greyhound refurb was a big job - not surprising that it took longer than just a simple repainting. But renovating the Grove would be even bigger because it's totally wrecked, and there's a shortage of skilled labour and much more expensive materials now...
    • Rather bizarrely, I received a text from TJ surgery offering this service. To be clear, no data was asked for in the text so I don't suspect a scam but surely this is dodgy? Where does my DNA info end up and who would have access? I'm going to the surgery on the invite date to ask precisely this.
    • I used Emmaus https://emmaus.org.uk/slc/ to clear my grandfathers house last year. They were great. They all charge for this service so will come and give you a quote first.  
    • Hi, does anyone know of any charities or companies that can come and clear your house to be donated for a good cause? I know the British heart foundation does but wondering if there are others? We are moving overseas and hoping to donate most of our belongings in one swoop if we can! Thanks.
