Two young sisters from a Staffordshire village have become stars of the internet after voicing their concerns about the proposed high-speed rail route HS2 on You Tube.
Eden, aged 11, and Laurel Heeler, nine, of Church Street, Whittington, near Lichfield, whose village will be affected by the £33 billion rail link asked their parents to help them make a video airing their thoughts.
The footage has been watched by 3,000 people around the world since it was posted online a few weeks ago to the delight of the youngsters.
Whittington and Lichfield's STOPHS2 Action Group used it to raise awareness of the plan for the London to Scotland line.
Lichfield Guildhall hosts a consultation event tomorrow and Thursday.
