We’ve just completed hundreds of Christmas and New Year projects across Britain’s railway to give you better and more reliable journeys for the long term.

Find out what we got up to over the festive period …

We also completed a major rail upgrade in Manchester – improvements to track and signalling equipment to boost reliability.

More than 100 railway workers installed four new track components – used to direct trains – completed two sections of new electric wiring – which powers some trains – and upgraded signalling equipment near Manchester Victoria station.

The improvements help to bring a more modern, reliable railway as well as creating the capacity for more trains to run in the future, improving connectivity across the North.

This work is part of the wider Transpennine Route Upgrade which will bring faster, more reliable services for passengers travelling between York, Leeds, Huddersfield and Manchester.
