The Modern Railway 2026

As the government moves forward with the creation of Great British Railways, the UK’s rail industry faces huge change in structure, policy and funding. With some major projects ‘paused’ and rolling stock orders in abeyance, there is considerable uncertainty about what happens next – but no doubt at all that 2026 is a defining year for Britain’s railway. The Modern Railway 2026 examines how this bold new era could look and work – and analyses the impact on finance, rolling stock, infrastructure, technology, signalling, major projects and much more. With exclusive coverage from the team behind Modern Railways magazine including Roger Ford and Alan Williams, in-depth profiles of major players and a comprehensive directory of suppliers and organisations, The Modern Railway is a must-have source of analysis, insight and reference for everyone who works in and around the railway.
