A Railway Football Team 🚈⚽️ | All Views are our own and don’t reflect those of SWR

Once again. We prove we are winners. Haters can 🤫🤫🤫 Without doubt the best teams in the final. Was good to see and battle it out against the Dorset Rail (Bournemouth Traincrew) in the final.

At least one train company train drivers had the balls to say ‘no’ to their pay deal…...

The result of the ASLEF pay referendum for Avanti West Coast drivers has seen members reject the offer mandated by the DfT, due to the strings attached to it.



So turns out the “Excellence” Awards was last week and it appears that raising thousands for charities close to our players hearts and charities associated with SWR doesn’t warrant any sort of recognition. Disheartening. Maybe time for rebrand/disassociate ourselves with SWR


Direct from the legend herself…..

Best shirt in my ‘drobe!



That Shirt gets better and better with age. @bessbbe freight train driver and ambassador of SWR FC.

Meet Bessie Matthews, a driver for @GBRailfreight. 🎬 TV's @MrTimDunn spoke to Bessie at #TheGreatestGathering this month to find out what inspired her to pursue a career in freight and what it feels like to drive a train at 75 miles an hour. @greatestgather @Alstom #Freight



No. Really. I’m shocked.

Network Rail says the signalling failure at Waterloo is a repeat of the issue from Saturday but they have now fixed it permanently … services slowly getting back to normal



What about fixing the AWS faults on the brand new multi million pound signalling system….

Network Rail workers armed with brushes, rollers and approx 1,500 litres of white paint are taking to the tracks to prepare the railway for the hot months ahead – helping to keep @SW_Help, @SouthernRailUK & @GWRHelp passengers & freight moving More networkrailmediacentre.co.uk/news/paint-rol…

Our annual celebration of semi-professional and amateur football is coming up fast. Scheduled during the next international break when all the biggest clubs have the week off, it's a great chance for non-league clubs to show how brilliant they are. Spread the word 🙂👍

Why was BTP cup fixture arranged to play the day after new years day and 2 days after New Year’s Eve which is their busiest time of year and again the same with buses? You can’t expect teams to field teams directly after the busiest time of the year

LU Cup Update: Northern vs BTP. BTP could not field a team on 2nd Jan. R Metropoitano vs Buses on 6th Jan has been cancelled. Buses cannot field a team. Northern & R Met will go through on default wins. Northern will face W&C 16th Jan R Met will face DLR 21st Jan

Calling Railway & Football Historians Your help is needed. We are looking for as much information regarding the Southern Railways Football Section (1925-1963). If you have information on the subject or point us in the right direction to find it. Would be appreciated

Don’t forget not everyone celebrate Christmas or even enjoys the whole ‘festive’ period. I know from personal experience how hard it can be and can get. Don’t suffer or struggle in silence. It’s Okay not to be okay.
