Always allow too much time to cross London and my ticket’s not valid on the first train. This is how the coffee shops make their money.

We took 20 organisations to Newport ln GW, today to look at our composite electrification mast demo - before testing starts. Great to see so much interest. This is a small part the industry is doing reduce embedded carbon & lower cost (1/3).

@cinemachoochoo @Elwick70 @RAIL @GarethDennis Published research can support these decisions - google Joel Smethurst at Uni of Southampton, eg https://t.co/aUH5lcYGdb "Mechanical and hydrological impacts of tree removal on a clay fill railway embankment"

@UKRRIN @UniofNottingham @uos_trg @TICSheffield @HeriotWattUni @ISSS_HW @lboroCSG My wife thinks the eyebrows are hilarious

[UKRRIN @UKRRIN]

We are delighted with the commitment of UK Government to work more closely with #UKRRIN.

UKRRIN is a partnership between academia, industry and Government, working to deliver research development and innovation in #rail.

We look forward to working with Great British Railways

[Railresearch @railresearch]

@runningparamed1 tbh it’s pretty normal at academic conferences unless you are delivering the keynote lecture. So worth trying your employer ...

[Railresearch @railresearch]

Collaborative research with @networkrail to take out cost and carbon @UKRRIN

[Network Rail @networkrail]

⚡❌Electric resistant paint … Yeah – we said it!

🎨Check out the paint we developed with @unisouthampton 👉 https://t.co/zuq5kPazBE

😲 It protects low bridges from electric trains. Potentially, we don’t need to knock bridges down, saving a lot of time and money.

Sharon highlights @UKRRIN's work assessing future needs of the industry and outlines the two new Centres of Excellence the network is launching 👇

If you are interested in getting involved in these do get in touch with @UKRRIN!

[Rail Technical Strategy @RailTechnical]

A new, more focused, compelling and less R&D-centric Rail Technical Strategy has been produced by industry for industry. Join us for its launch next week. #railtechnicalstrategy #RTS2020 #RTS #rail #railinnovation #railcollaboration

[Marcus Young @MAYoungUK]

Need to estimate demand for a new #railway #station or line? The Station Demand Forecasting Tool from @uos_trg is an automated tool to forecast demand for new local railway stations in GB. Available as an open source project with an easy Docker install: https://t.co/v8xigyhLL8

[Railresearch @railresearch]

Last week for applications for PhD projects in railway infrastructure https://t.co/g6qG5yXqBm Five will be offered employment with Network Rail while studying @UKRRIN @UoSEngineering @networkrail @bcrre @PaulCliftonBBC
Great opportunity with long term prospects
