A campaign to help passengers plan their journeys during an eight-week rail closure launched this week.

As the world-famous Christmas markets return to Lincoln, the rail industry has joined forces to help keep everyone safe.

• This year's theme of neurodiversity is being celebrated through special 'umbrella' art at London Bridge, Victoria and Waterloo 
• Stations will also be lit up in purple symbolising the new positive narrative about the contribution of disabled people in the workforce and the wider community, including at Network Rail. 

Network Rail is continuing with major improvement work around Manchester over Christmas, as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade.

Network Rail is delighted to be recognised for the £250,000 restoration of one Britain’s most famous signal boxes

Network Rail’s leaders have pledged to increase the number of disabled people they employ after figures showed that less than 3% of their 44,000-strong workforce has declared a disability or long-term health condition.

The return of the Christmas markets has seen daily passenger numbers at Manchester Piccadilly station return to levels not seen since before the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

A bigger, more spacious entrance and concourse with a brand-new waiting room, café and ticket office are just some of the benefits passengers will enjoy as part of a £5.2m upgrade to Maidstone East station.
