As an angry commuter furious abt cancellations & delays, I want trains to run on time! This won't be instant, but Keith Williams (pic) has right ideas: An accountable 'fat controller' in charge of new national rail body, strong regions & operators paid for running trains ON TIME!

Thank you @NP_Partnership for hosting today’s event at the beautiful Bradford City Hall. Thanks too to all that came and panellists @SHinchcliffe Laura Dunley @HitachiRailEU & Dan Brown @railandroad
In final summing up at today’s event, Laura Dunley, Commercial Director, @HitachiRailEU said that a new commercial model must enable much greater industry collaboration on low carbon technologies, helping rail make a significant contribution towards tackling the climate emergency
@SHinchcliffe , leader of @bradfordmdc says that there needs to be a change of thinking about the railway so it is seen as a ‘public good’, with investment also affecting other areas like public health
Speaking at today’s event, Laura Dunley, Commercial Director, @HitachiRailEU tells the audience that the railway needs a long term version and the current franchising system is constraining innovation
Speaking alongside Keith Williams at today’s @NP_Partnership event is Dan Brown from @railandroad setting out how it thinks compensation and accessibility can be improved for passengers
“To achieve this vison, I believe reform should be focused on five key areas: a new passenger offer, simplified fares and ticketing... a new industry structure... commercial model... and a range of proposals on leadership, skills, diversity.”
Keith Williams: “I want to see the creation of a thoroughly modern, 21st century service provider.
A railway that is run in the public’s interest, delivering for passengers, supporting local economies, embracing innovation and new business models to improve journey experience”
At Bradford City Hall this AM our independent chair, Keith Williams, sets out his proposals for reform focused on a brand new offer for passengers
