Network Rail Chief Executive Andrew Haines joins us to talk all things draft Rail Reform Bill. If you’ve been left with all sorts of questions after the Department for Transport’s recent announcement, watch this and you’ll be much clearer afterwards!
We talk about:
00:00 Intro
01:15 Is the Great British Railways (GBR) brand going to be the name of the new Integrated Rail Body or will it die as some have been suggesting?
02:38 And indeed, will the Network Rail brand disappear too?
05:07 What chance is there of getting this into legislation before the General Election?
07:49 Why has it taken so long to get to this point?
09:57 Is the Government serious about this or are they just throwing a curve ball to Labour?
12:32 Why so much emphasis on the role of the private sector?
16:54 Rail franchising
17:24 Presumably Department for Transport staff will transfer to GBR?
20:05 How are we going to change the culture?
24:03 Bringing track and train closer together
31:09 Is a ‘guiding mind’ what we really need?
37:26 How do people know that rail reform is really going to stick this time?
42:09 Summary - and Andrew’s closing comments that you really don’t want to miss!
