⚠️ We're working hard to keep rail services moving during #StormBoelo this weekend.
🌬️ If you live near the railway, firmly secure objects like trampolines, sheds and garden furniture.
These can block lines and disrupt trains.

Live near the railway? Make sure you tie down objects like trampolines and garden furniture.
These can easily blow onto the tracks and block train services. ❌

🎥 Across the railway, drones, sensors and smart CCTV are helping us identify and catch trespassers faster than ever.
Step onto the tracks and you could face a fine, arrest or even a criminal record:

Today marks 1 year since we entered public ownership under DFTO.
Over the past 12 months we have remained one of the best performing train operators in the UK, opened Beaulieu Park and Cambridge South railway stations, extended contactless ticketing to Stansted Airport, Witham and Southend Victoria, and carried out timetable improvements and community initiatives.
We are also taking advantage of being part of GBR Anglia – a unified railway combining Greater Anglia, c2c and Network Rail Anglia.

🤔 How can #drought affect the railway?
📹 One way is that it can cause the ground underneath the tracks to dry out and shrink.
Here's how we deal with the problem to keep you moving safely:
