The Whistle Stop Tour

We would usually hit the road to visit every corner of our network and talk directly with you, our customers, throughout the year on our Whistle Stop Tour. An opportunity for you to meet our managers and help us build a better railway. However, with the ongoing Covid-19 situation, this isn’t possible at the moment, and all face to face sessions remain postponed until further notice.

Introducing our new ‘Whistle Stop video podcasts’

To help us build back better, we want to put you in the driving seat! We think it’s really important for us to get to know you and give you the opportunity to talk to us directly about our continued commitment to investing in new trains and better journeys for all, as well as understand how you really feel about travelling with us.

That’s why we’re taking our whistle stop tour online! We’ll be asking for your questions via our social media teams, focusing on one specific route at a time, and getting the relevant experts in our local and head office management teams to reply via short video clips. We’ll then share all the questions and answers on our social media feeds.

Please bear with us while we adapt to the temporary ‘new normal’ during these strange times and try something new to keep you informed.

When its safe to do so, we hope to be able to resume our station and on train face to face whistle stops and will keep reviewing our programme.

What did you ask us about?

We take all feedback seriously and use it to help shape future services. Answers to the hot topics from recent sessions can be found below, simply look for your route &or nearby stations to find out what’s going on in your area. We won’t always be able to answer each individual question, but will try to ensure that all topics raised are covered in the podcast.
