Tonight at Euston we will have the rare sight of a @GWRHelp Night Riviera next to us! It’s not very often you see both UK sleepers side by side. Send us your pictures! 🚆💤

@BBCLookEast @eastwestrail @RailfutureEA This should read ‘East West Rail to bring years of benefits plus quicker and cheaper journey opportunities’. How can a once in three generation chance to reopen a closed railway be portrayed in such negative light? 🤷🏻

Exciting news! There are vacancies for trainee drivers at various depots for GA right now! This is a super rare chance to get the best seat on the train. It’s by far the best move I’ve ever made 🚂😊

CPCA @cambspboroca has just published the @networkrail report looking at a #Wisbech to #March rail shuttle business case. It is clear that earlier proposals for direct service to #Cambridge are substantially better once #Ely capacity increased. More info wisbechrail.org.uk

🚆 East West Rail🚆 The Chancellor confirmed government support in the recent Budget! @eastwestrail will connect Oxford, Milton Keynes, Bedford & Cambridge, boosting economic growth and access to jobs, education, and services. Consultation opens 14/11/24: bit.ly/3AHRfpD

Excellent progress in the west of Ireland… seeing this exciting project, reminds us that relaying the 7 miles of mothballed track from Wisbech to March (with through trains every hour onto Cambridge) surely isn’t so difficult….and maybe without yet another consultation!

The rebuild of the Foynes line has reached the outskirts of #limerick city. This is equivalent to the Collooney-Charlestown section rebuilt in just 20 months. #sligo #mayo #galway #westernrailcorridor #students #commuters #industry @Sligo @SligosBuzzin @atusligo_ie @SligoChamber

New rail link: leaders call for urgent action amid £230m cost | High costs challenge reopening of March-Wisbech railway, with leaders urging investment to unlock regional connectivity eastangliabylines.co.uk/business/trans…

Reopening the March-Wisbech line could have transformative benefits. How projects (such as rail reopenings) are appraised needs to change. This line should be considered alongside growth opportunities in Wisbech, including proposals for a Garden Town. wisbechstandard.co.uk/news/24699912.…

There’s some welcome spending decisions in the #Budget2024 but it is beyond disappointing that it contained zero reference to additional funding for accessible 🚂 stations. Starmer said rail accessibility was a basic requirement. We need actions not words. #stepfreeaccess

Hell's teeth, they are still seeing EWR as a commuter island instead of a strategic link. Discontinuous electrification will bar the use of this new key route to pure electric traction. Talk about silo thinking.
