Three of us honoured to attend funeral of Chris Smyth, 1944 - 2024 & a long-serving Railway Heritage Awd Trustee. Photo in his youth at Darlington, when even locos on the scrap line were clean!

Our event made the front page of this week's Okehampton Times
Shawford Station has been transformed into a community hub thanks to joint working between Three Rivers Rail SWR Help RailwayHeritageTrust and other stakeholders - the station is now home to a café, meeting spaces and history displays 🚂

Good, if brief, visit to Devon & Cornwall Rail Partnership at Okehampton , where we unveiled the 2023 Avanti West Coast sponsored @nrhawd plaque for the best community project. Well deserved, a great scheme to go with the reopened line.
Making community spaces accessible for all is part of what #CommunityRail members do, so great to visit The Turning Tides Project tea room at #Crediton to see the new fully accessible eco-aware toilet. Glad to work with Devon & Cornwall Rail Partnership RailwayHeritageTrust & GWR on this. Yummy scones too!
Great to see mention of @railwayheritage support for this project in this excellent ITV news report on Keighley Water Tower. It remains a Network Rail asset still fulfilling the function for which it was built. itv.com/watch/news/tra…
We were pleased to put colleagues from Network Rail in touch with the St Albans Signal Box Museum and secure a future for an NUR Noticeboard (and its notices!) from the Euston PSB. It was recently handed over to the museum and can now be seen there.
I visited the Bloomsbury Leisure Group's new Victoria Tap at Manchester Victoria this am. Lovely delivery of a part RailwayHeritageTrust funded project, and hopefully an entry in the 2024 Railway Heritage Awd .
After 7 years at the helm of Scotland’s Railway, I’m proud & excited to be joining Department for Transport as Director General, Rail Services next month. I’m going to miss working with the amazing people at ScotRail & Network Rail Scotland, who work so hard to deliver for our customers.
Wow #CRA24 didn't disappoint! So many great #CommunityRail winners, and many more inspirational projects too. Found these two winners at the end of the evening who've done so much for young (and older!) on rail safety & sustainable travel!
