Rail Forum

Rail Forum is a national industry body for the railway with strong regional connections, operating from our base in the Midlands. Our membership is diverse and growing, with over 380+ members across the UK and across the breadth of the sector. Our members include infrastructure and rolling stock consultancies, manufacturers, OEMs and a wide range of service providers to the industry. We bring together rail businesses and clients, with national and regional government, supporting them to grow, export, innovate and create skilled employment. We are a not-for-profit organisation, owned and governed by our members. Our Board, which is representative of our membership, provide our strategic direction. We provide unrivalled networking opportunities encouraging collaboration across the supply chain and beyond. We work strategically with both UK and regional governments, the Rail Delivery and Supply Groups (RDG/RSG) and LEPs as well as continuing to support our members through specific events. We work extremely closely with Government departments including BEIS, DfT and DIT, with regular dialogue with Ministers and Ministerial teams.
