I am delighted to continue our partnership with the museum through which we can support their work and highlight how today’s innovations are helping deliver a more sustainable railway tomorrow.”

Judith McNicol, Director of the National Railway Museum, said: “We’re delighted that Porterbrook will continue to support the work of the National Railway Museum at such an exciting time in our Vision 2025 work. Partnerships such as this allow us to achieve our goal of becoming the World’s Railway Museum, and working with rail industry partners is something that we really value and appreciate.”
