The first official partnership between Network Rail and a heritage railway is celebrating 12 months of successes and achievements.



Network Rail’s Central route and the Severn Valley Railway (SVR) signed its unique partnership just over a year ago, providing an opportunity for each to benefit from the other’s expertise, technology and facilities.
One example of partnership working which took place earlier this year saw the past meet the present with a drone inspection of Severn Valley Railway’s iconic Victoria bridge.
