UK RAIL SUMMIT
3RD MARCH 2025
KPMG
15 CANADA SQUARE
LONDON E14 5GL
3RD MARCH 2025

LONDON E14 5GL
The UK Government's mission to move fast and overhaul the railways has seen its Public Railway Services Bill rapidly pass through Parliament with the first train operators to be brought into public ownership announced. A consultation on a new Railways Bill is also due out shortly, with a view to introducing it to Parliament by summer 2025.
Our UK Rail Summit will hear from highly experienced industry figures on how these wholesale industry changes can best deliver improvements for both passengers and freight customers, driving up performance, improving integration and accessibility, and offering an attractive and viable alternative to road journeys.
We will discuss:
How can a new culture be cultivated within GBR that encourages innovation, delivers integration, improves passenger-focussed benefits and grows freight?
How will the privately owned Rolling Stock Leasing Companies, Open Access train operators and retail ticketing providers interface with the publicly owned track and train structure?
Can Wales, Scotland and the English Regions deliver their bespoke rail strategies within a new centralised system?
Can rail play a real role in delivering mode shift and inclusive economic growth without cheaper fares?
How will GBR ensure accessibility is a tangible rather than desirable feature of the rail network and how can it bring forward immediate improvements?
What will the new long-term Rolling Stock Strategy mean for the supply chain, decarbonisation, alternative fuels, and accessibility?
Can the Government harness private sector investment in a way that strengthens rather than dilutes rail's new public service role?

Some very well known names on the speaker panels - so many that you wonder how much time each gets
.....and, indeed, how much of that money!
I see Hendy's on the list, hope no-one mentions Euston! (wonder if Gareth Dennis will turn up?)
