The aim of Community Rail Development is simply: putting local and rural railways on a sustainable basis for the long term, so that they can continue to offer a vital service for passengers and freight and can contribute more to the local economy, as well as to meeting Government targets on accessibility, the environment and social inclusion. New life for local lines.
