Railway Heritage Trusts adds useful guidance for community rail groups [Community Rail Network]

Date: 20/01/2021

The Railway Heritage Trust has added two documents to the ^Guidance^ section of their website which could be of interest to Community Rail Network members. Both of the documents are from Network Rails new suite of design guidance documents. The first one is the Redundant Signal Box Strategy, which looks at ways to re-use signal boxes which are no longer in operational use. It includes details of various arrangements for allowing community groups/projects to take on such signal boxes.
