The Community Rail Education Network met on Thursday 27 February to hear from Christy Argyroudi at Railway 200 about the special Exhibition Train, and how community rail partnerships and station groups can get involved. The recording and resources from the meeting can be found here: Railway 200 Exhibition Carriage – TrainEd.
The next session will be held on Wednesday 19 March, 10-11am. Attendees will hear from Network Rail about the ‘Emily the Engineer’ programme, and how it can be used to support community rail members with their STEM youth engagement work.
