If a freight flow is regular enough, with enough volume, then it should go by Rail - that'll be best for us all. If there's no railhead, one should be created. If Rail is not an option, 'your' 44 tonne HGV-E would at least be some improvement... #ModalShiftToRail Cc @LouHaigh
Thank you. With compelling environmental, economic & social benefits from enabling & incentivising substantial #ModalShiftToRail, we need to set about systematically (re)connecting existing & planned centres of population to the national rail network. #Reinstatements #NewLines
Improving connectivity, capacity & experience will prove vital to a joined-up national policy to enable, incentivise & secure substantial #ModalShiftToRail. We need *this* for the economic as well as environmental benefits. Cc @LouHaigh @Juergen_Maier @PeaksDalesRail @MEMRAP1
...and #TransportVandalism - when, instead, we should be enabling, encouraging & incentivising #ModalShiftToRail for all the well-rehearsed reasons - including socio-economic, environmental, & quality of life. Cc @TransportCttee @CBTransport @RailfuturePsngr #MeddlingMinisters
Environmental and net zero vandalism right in front of our eyes
And environmental, and economic... To secure the huge #ModalShiftToRail we need, our railway needs *more* capacity & connectivity, not less - and not defeatism. So we must focus on making our railway resilient (or, in extremis, reprovisioning key sections). Cc @NatInfraCom
Spot on! Since the UK needs substantial #ModalShiftToRail, fine words must be followed by well considered, effective, & properly resourced action to: * grow capacity & connectivity; * improve reliability & resilience; * reduce fares & journey times; * rebuild our rail sector.

Quite. She's stupidly cutting off one of the catalysts for the economic growth on which she is relying - as are we. And that's before we consider how HMG will achieve its environmental targets without substantial #ModalShiftToRail... Cc @RachelReevesMP @LouHaigh @transportgovuk
This is hugely disappointing... Rail is one of the greenest forms of transport and crucial to the economy. The Restoring Your Railways Fund was key to getting much-needed lines and stations reopened. We urge the Government to reconsider. news.railbusinessdaily.com/chancellor-ann…

What "change" are you promising? Better reliability? Punctuality? Lower fares? More comfortable journeys? Better, faster, step-free trains? Clean, working toilets? Good, affordable on-board catering? Working WiFi? Customer Service? Car parking that encourages #ModalShiftToRail?
Invest in our #HighSpeedRail network right across the UK @Keir_Starmer and put "the most efficient" mode of transport within reach of many more people, many doubtless also having a busy schedule but wanting to make the most environmentally responsible choice. #ModalShiftToRail
This "madness by @RoyalMail" should prompt rapid action by HMG to reduce railway energy costs - creating a better balance between Road and Rail, & thereby encouraging more of the #ModalShiftToRail that we need & want. Cc @LouHaigh @LordPeterHendy @transportgovuk @TransportCttee
A welcome development... #ModalShiftToRail alstom.com/press-releases…
Many happy returns, Nigel! Fantastic way to celebrate - and, in so doing, to show that there's still a certain style about rail travel in the UK... if you know where to look... and, I realise, also at a price. #ModalShiftToRail
This time, there is the escalating pressure to respond urgently to the many challenges presented by #ClimateChange. And that requires, amongst many other policy interventions, a substantial & sustained #ModalShiftToRail for passengers and freight. Cc @LouHaigh @Juergen_Maier
Great to see more #TravelByTrain around GB - better for the environment, too. This desirable trend should continue strongly as Great British Railways delivers more capacity, connectivity & coverage. Cc @LordPeterHendy @transportgovuk #ModalShiftToRail news.sky.com/story/staggeri…

'Staggering' 20-year fall in domestic UK flights - as another form of transport benefits
Better and more frequent train services, higher flying taxes, concern about the environmental impact of flying, and changing work patterns - especially since COVID - have contributed to the change.
Great to see: * this record set in this 200th railway year * the point made about the need for visionary decisions soon * D stock continuing to serve the cause New trains catalyse #ModalShiftToRail - growing our economy & improving our environment. Cc @GWRHelp @transportgovuk

Environmental and net zero vandalism right in front of our eyes
More enlightened @Greens4HS2 are surely pretty miserable at the point 'we' have reached - at least, at the point we're clearly at, for now... Given that #ModalShiftToRail means from *all* modes, incl. domestic aviation, the appeal of #Rail must be raised to the highest level.
Proves what's possible... and which, in order to secure the #ModalShiftToRail necessary for a set of well-rehearsed reasons, 'we' will need to make happen more widely, and more quickly...
Good work @RailDeliveryGrp. Should be promoted widely. Now to tackle fares... #ModalShiftToRail Cc @transportgovuk @TransportCttee
Electric cars produce twice as much CO₂ as trains, says rail group data theguardian.com/business/2024/…
Lack of rail connectivity - and decent services - has a demonstrably negative impact on people, the economy & the environment... a key reason why it's so vital to invest in rail infrastructure. By definition, these are *long* term plans... #ModalShiftToRail Cc @LouHaigh
"....move away from the West Midlands to pursue our careers...." @PeaksDalesRail connectivity is an important part of a solution to make East Midlands youngsters think again before doing exactly the same thing.
So today's question is: in which year(s) were the fastest scheduled railway journey times between Manchester & Derby? No prizes (yet!) And there'll need to be evidence! @PeaksDalesRail @MEMRAP1 @fmcbadger @BroomheadEnvir1 Let's #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone #ModalShiftToRail
We were surprised when we discovered that it was faster to travel between Derby and Manchester in 1950 than it is today! That's one of the reasons why we're promoting the reinstatement of the Peaks and Dales line, supported by @MEMRAP1 Let's #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone
Let's #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone so: * once again people can travel from Manchester, Derby & further afield to/from @peakdistrict - more sustainably & quicker than by road! * we can get #ModalShiftToRail for more freight too. #RestoringYourRailway focustransport.org/2020/05/matloc…
Achieving #NetZero does indeed mean #ModalShiftToRail - and a substantial shift too. So investing in increased railway capacity is vital, for both passengers & freight: * new lines like #HS2 and #HS3 / NPR * existing lines; * selected #BeechingReopenings like @PeaksDalesRail
🚃Securing a carbon-neutral future means transporting more freight by rail 🤝Yesterday plans for the West Midlands Strategic Rail Freight Interchange (SRFI) in Staffordshire were granted development consent More here: 👇 gov.uk/government/new…
We're working to #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone to support #ModalShiftToRail and to reconnect communities in #Derbyshire isolated for over 50 years. We expect to hear from @transportgovuk soon wrt our #RestoringYourRailway Ideas Fund application - with key support from @MEMRAP1!
First look at the converted Class153 units for active transport and carriage of cycles on @ScotRail . @PeaksDalesRail plan something similar for enhanced cycle access @peakdistrict - without the need for your car. #GetPeaksandDalesRailwayDone #ModalShifttoRail
@PeaksDalesRail is proposing to return freight as well as passenger services to this iconic railway. Once reinstated, it'd take cars and HGVs off the congested, narrow & winding roads of the Peak District National Park. [Photo: Colin Boocock, CEng, FIMechE] #ModalShiftToRail
For over 100 years, the Peak District had this great scenic railway, serving passengers and, as here, freight. HMG's #NetZero emissions target means we need #ModalShiftToRail - so these vital arteries, severed in the 60s, may be reinstated #BeechingReopenings Photo Colin Boocock
90% of 13.25m visitor days by car!! #ModalShiftToRail creates a journey "blob" larger than Derby, opening the way to a sustainable #NetZero for @peakdistrict: @peak_chair @CllrBarryLewis @Dines4Dales @robertlargan #GetPeaksandDalesRailwayDone
Look at the blocker to #ModalShiftToRail when key #BeechingReopenings are missing. The erratic blue line shows unreliability, pent up demand, EM to NW regions #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone @CBTransport @Transport4North @midsengine @MidsConnect @MariaPMachan @Derbyshirecc
Our calendar is sending us a timely subliminal message this month... it's time to #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone It was a mainline railway for over 100 years - to help secure #ModalShiftToRail we believe it should be a @transportgovuk #RestoringYourRailway reinstatement priority!
Exactly! @PeaksDalesRail & @MEMRAP1 are working to achieve essentially the same for the equally iconic Manchester - Derby route... passenger, freight & heritage services... which would serve the Peak District National Park and enable #ModalShiftToRail [Photo: Colin Boocock]
Clue in the name 'Parkway' = #ModalShiftToRail Even a completely electric road fleet would still have 'the Oslo effect'.
More on #StandingPassengers, we need all to be able to get a seat, standing should be choice or very, very, very rare to lure people out of cars. #ModalShiftToRail #TravelByRail.
