"Volunteering is planting seeds of kindness in soil..."
Today Network Rail Staff and Stone Station Adopters were volunteering for North Staffs CRP. Removing old planters, installing new planters, planting, and doing a tidy up of the Station. Thank you all for your support.
Community Rail Conference 2025.
Useful discussions, sharing and learning ideas and question time. "When you focus on people you do everything differently."

Can you crack the code at @bletchleypark via the scenic @marstonvalecrp Line? This fascinating, interactive attraction, once home to WWII’s top-secret codebreakers, was also the real-life setting for The Imitation Game. More: scenicrailbritain.com/blog/f…

🧐 Did you know that Stephen Hawking spent some of his childhood in St Albans? No? Well neither did I
🖌️ That was, I didn’t until I saw the artwork on display at St. Albans Abbey station
👀 Local history is nearly always on display if you take a minute to look around a station

The Community Day at Stone Station and the celebration of 177 years since Stone Station opened with a passenger service between Stoke and Norton Bridge was a success! Well done to all involved in putting together a great event!😊
Welcome to the team Oscar! 🪶💕
🦅 We have a new starter at Euston! Meet Oscar, the Harris hawk helping to keep Euston squeaky clean and pigeon free!
🙌🏻 He is doing a great job already, making the station less inviting for our feathered loiterers!
👀 Check out the full story here: gloo.to/FSF5

It was great to be a part of the volunteering day with DfT at Garston Station Community Garden today. Digging, litter picking, weeding and clearing the way for what will be a new look garden.☺️
