Britain Runs on Rail
Rail is fundamental to the country’s prosperity. After enormous growth, Britain’s railway is increasingly important in connecting workers to jobs, businesses to markets, and people to their families and friends.
The combination of public and private investment going into the railway is set to boost the UK’s economy by almost £85bn, benefiting every region of Britain.
Here you’ll find more information, videos and the ‘In Partnership for Britain’s Prosperity’ plan to secure a stronger economy, better customer journeys and more rewarding jobs on the railway.
