Railway Industry Association launches strategic vision for 2050 rail network. 🛤️ At the moment, 38% of the GB network is electrified, with plans to increase to 51% by the next decade. RIA proposes boosting this to 65%, aiming to decarbonise all passenger and most freight journeys by 2050. Battery electric trains play a crucial role in this plan, providing immediate decarbonisation and boosting the UK rail manufacturing sector. This is exciting news for the rail sector, and as suppliers, we're keen to support the transition towards a greener and more efficient railway system. ✅ #RailManufacturing #UKRail #Railway #Rubber #RubberMoulding #RubberIndustry #CompressionMoulding #UKManufacturing

High-speed rail in the U.S. has the potential to be a game-changer, says a recent report by the Mineta Transportation Institute. It could cut greenhouse gas emissions, boost city economies, and enhance regional connectivity. Currently, Amtrak's Acela trains are the fastest, but they reach top speeds for just 50 miles of track along the Northeast Corridor. Compared to the rest of the world, U.S. intercity passenger trains are lagging, often operating below 125 mph. Shifting travelers to high-speed rail could significantly reduce emissions, according to the report. Notable projects include California's 800-mile high-speed rail and Brightline West's 186-mph line, which could remove 3 million cars from the road annually. Beyond environmental benefits, these projects are creating jobs. California's High-Speed Rail Authority has already generated 7,800 jobs, and Brightline West anticipates over 10,000 construction jobs and 1,000 permanent positions. Plus, high-speed rail could save public funds by reducing the need for infrastructure improvements. Look for high-speed rail to be the future of sustainable transportation in the U.S. Enthusiastic about contributing to initiatives like these?

Passengers urged to plan ahead of major rail track upgrades in Huddersfield Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU) is reminding passengers travelling along the rail line between Manchester, Huddersfield, Leeds and York to plan their journeys ahead of time, as track upgrades in Huddersfield are due to take place each weekend throughout September and October. Over the two months, hundreds of engineers working on the multi-billion-pound scheme will replace approximately 650m of railway tracks. This work will enable trains to travel at higher speeds and improve the overall reliability of services passing through the area in the future, as the number of railway tracks will increase from two to four. https://lnkd.in/euKaDXrr Network Rail TransPennine Express
