Rural Passenger Services
Many First Class Partnerships Directors and associates have life-long experience in the operation of railway networks that include rural passenger services in England. They are familiar with the traditional economic structure of rural railways and understand the importance of community relationships in sustaining them.
One of our senior consultants, Andy Cooper, pioneered a number of community action schemes in conjunction with a Train Company that led to a significant revival in the use of several rural routes in East Anglia. Our engineering consultants also understand that the infrastructure specification and design of rural routes represents an area for potential innovation that can lead to more economic operations.
First Class Partnerships provides strategic, commercial, operations, engineering and infrastructure rail consultancy and advice to leading rail companies, investors in rail, governments and regulators around the globe.
