Phase 2 is a three-year project running until 2025 and gives us the opportunity to build on the momentum of phase 1\, connecting more Scottish businesses with rail sector organisations\, strengthening and deepening relationships with key stakeholders across the sector and helping to create innovative\, green solutions that will support the net zero targets set out in the Scottish Government’s Rail Services Decarbonisation Action Plan. Giving opportunities to Scottish SMEs to bring new ideas\, new thinking and learning from other industries across Scotland into the railway sector will be key to delivering the decarbonisation of Scotland’s rail services by 2035 as well as supporting local employment and economic growth across the country. \nA key element of Phase 2 will be ensuring businesses have access to support to address the skills-related challenges faced by businesses in the rail sector. Skills Development Scotland (SDS) will also provide support to companies to identify their skills needs\, and how to develop their existing workforce in order to build capacity\, grasp opportunities and increase competitiveness. \nScottish Engineering Chief Executive Paul Sheerin said: “We are excited to be given the opportunity to step up our ambition for the Rail Cluster in this new phase\, renewing our focus on finding ways to connect Scotland’s Engineering SME’s to opportunity in the rail sector.  Our continued involvement allows us to help companies seeking to diversify their business into rail\, matching their interest in sustainable business streams which will flow from the clearly defined targets for rail de-carbonisation in Scotland and the UK.” \nShona Clive added: “We have strengthened the Scottish Engineering Rail Cluster team to ensure that this new phase of the Rail Cluster is well resourced to deliver at the pace and the quality that we have set our sights on. \nAnd while we will retain the elements that have delivered a successful cluster to date\, we look forward to bringing new ideas and innovation to the way we deliver\, including an outward view to the rail opportunities across the UK\, Europe and beyond.” \nTo celebrate the award of Phase 2\, we are holding a launch event with Progress Rail at their site in South Queensferry on Wednesday 17 August. The Progress Rail UK manufacturing site in South Queensferry is one of the most modern steel foundries in the UK with the capacity to produce Austenitic Manganese ‘special’ rail crossings from castings up to five tonnes in weight\, for customers in the UK and around the world. We expect the event to run from 0930-1330hrs with an update on the plans for this new phase of the rail cluster as well as an overview and tour of the Progress Rail operation. Further details will be shared shortly. \n  URL:https://www.railbusinessdaily.com/event/face-to-face-event-with-progress-rail/ LOCATION:Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.railbusinessdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Rail_Cluster_2022_01.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20220705 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20220707 DTSTAMP:20251103T030032 CREATED:20220325T161703Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220325T161703Z UID:10001687-1656979200-1657151999@www.railbusinessdaily.com SUMMARY:ERTMS AND DIGITAL SIGNALLING 2022 DESCRIPTION:ERTMS and Digital Signalling is your complete guide to ERMTS\, ETCS and the future of digital signalling.

The trauma of the failure of the Franchising system and the management of the impacts of COVID have shown that the allocation of revenue and cost risk between taxpayer and Operators is a key design factor to be addressed in any new commercial architecture for the rail industry.\nA key lesson learnt from the progressive failure of the Franchising system has been the inability to coordinate strategic planning across Infrastructure capability\, Franchise Specifications and market requirements. How can the essential alignment required be secured in the post-Franchising world?\nA key design aim of the arrangements being developed for the post-Franchise world is an improved and more direct relationship between local stakeholders and the relevant contracted Operators. This has been achieved by TfL with its two London Concessions and it is being embedded in Scotland and Wales. How can similar beneficial relationships be enabled in England given the challenges of non-correlated geographies across markets\, political representation and service provision? In addition\, if we “follow the money” there is no local structures in place as all funding in England is DfT controlled.\nIf the reforms of the Franchising model are focused on addressing the arrangements for delivering non-commercial public or social service related train operations at an affordable cost\, what model is appropriate for commercial Intercity train operations? What lessons can UK learn from mainland Europe in this area.\n\nIndustry Partner* \nCatherine Williams Deputy Director\, Railway Markets and Economics at ORR \n\n\n\n\n\nLeaders Debate 3 – Funding the Investment\nHosted by Rt Hon Norman Baker\n\n\n\n\n\nMaggie Simpson Director General\, Rail Freight Group \n\nAs the structure of the railways is reformed\, how do we create an environment in which private sector investment can flourish?\nWhat is the right mix of public and private investment for the railways?\nHow can public and private investment support Government’s wider economic ambitions?\nHow can we fund investment to decarbonise the railways?\n\nIndustry Partner*  \nTolu Osekita\, Lead Third Party Funding\, Network Rail \nTim Wood Northern Powerhouse Rail Director\, Transport for the North \n\nCould Northern Powerhouse Rail break the mould and let in an new era of private finance to drive Station builds?\nHow can we make sure that a pipeline is just that\, a clear view into the future of funded railway schemes that business decisions within the supply chain can understand in the Boardroom of decision makers?\nHow do we as an industry play our part in providing confidence to Government and HMT that we can deliver consistently to Programme and Cost?\nHow do we drive Freight company ambitions to run more trains while still providing for an increase in passengers numbers over the next 2 decades?\n\n\n\n\n\n10:55\nBreak and Networking\n\n\n11:25\nChris Heaton-Harris Rail Minister\, Department for Transport\n\n\n11:40\nAndrew Haines Chief Executive\, Network Rail \n\n  \n\nThe UK railway has a rich history of innovation and pioneering new technologies and the importance of building on this history;\nHow investing into new and emerging technologies that will deliver more for passengers and freight;\nThe efficiencies that can be made by investing in the right technologies as well as the role the railway has to play in supporting the national recovery from the pandemic.\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n11:55\nMark Phillips Chief Executive Officer\, Rail Safety and Standards Board\n\n\n12:10\nStrategic Partner Caroline Donaldson Managing Director West Coast Partnership Development \n\n\n12:25\n\nBreak and Networking\n\n\n12:55\nDavid Hughes Director General\, Rail Infrastructure\, Department for Transport\n\n\n13:10\n\nInnovation Room 1\n\n\n\nInnovation Room 2\n\n\n\nInnovation Room 3\n\n\n13:35\nTim Wood Northern Powerhouse Rail Director\, Transport for the North \n\nNorthern Powerhouse Rail\, the re-phasing of the Strategic Outline Case and the route to spades in the ground by mid 2020’s\n\n\n\n\n13:50\nPaul Harwood Investment Director Southern Region\, Network Rail\n\n\n14:05\n\nFinal Remarks and Networking URL:https://www.railbusinessdaily.com/event/rail-investment-getting-back-on-track/ LOCATION:Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210308 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210313 DTSTAMP:20251103T030032 CREATED:20210303T145854Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210303T145854Z UID:10001387-1615161600-1615593599@www.railbusinessdaily.com SUMMARY:RIA Devolution Week DESCRIPTION:In 2021\, devolved nations and regions across the UK will go to the polls to elect Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs) in Scotland\, Assembly Members (AMs) in London\, Members of the Senedd (MS) in Wales\, and Mayors in London\, the Midlands and the North. \nAll next week\, from 8 to 12 March 2021\, the Railway Industry Association (RIA)\, with partners Northern Rail Industry Leaders\, will be delivering a Devolution Week to explore the key rail issues facing these devolved nations and regions. \nThe week will involve a virtual event each day\, covering Scotland\, London\, the Midlands\, the North and Wales respectively.
