This week we’re congratulating Captain Tom Moore on his astonishing achievement of hitting the £30 million mark in his NHS fundraiser on his 100th birthday!
Captain Tom Moore, the veteran who raised more than £29 million for NHS Charities Together to mark his 100th birthday, has had a Great Western Railway Intercity train named in his honour.
Despite the costs and the unprecedented coronavirus crisis effecting the UK railway network, HS2 is beginning its search for contractors and suppliers – one week after companies were given the green light to enter the construction phase.
The president of the East Lancashire Railway Preservation Society, Peter Waterman is urgently appealing for the public to donate to the East Lancashire Railway Support Fund.
The search for contractors to design, deliver and maintain almost 300 state-of-the-art lifts and escalators for HS2’s four major new stations has begun.
Heritage railways are at risk of closure, plus HS2 is back in the headlines as the high speed rail project is given the go-ahead to enter its construction phase.
