We held our first annual Community Rail Conference in Crewe on the 20^th September. The event brought together Community Rail Partnerships (CRPs), local businesses and organisations that have connections with the local community and our Virgin Trains team, to discuss how we work in partnership for the local communities we serve. Through a series of discussions and keynote speeches, attendees were invited to consider ways we can continue to strengthen relationships and build new initiatives with CRPs and organisations on the West Coast route.
