RAIL’s annual National Rail Awards are known for their commitment to rewarding excellence and achievement across every aspect of the railway, RAIL’s annual premier awards scheme recognises everything from individual contributions made by those on the front line to major engineering triumphs on some of the railway’s biggest projects.
There are a couple of notable changes to the categories in this year’s awards. Fleet Excellence has been renamed Fleet Achievement of the Year. There are no changes to the criteria of the award itself.
The Sustainable Business Award is being split into two distinct awards to recognise the importance of this category and its different areas of focus. This award has now been replaced with Environmental Excellence and Outstanding Contribution to Society.
