Minutes of Meeting January 25
The Rail 74 CRP meeting covered key updates, including the need for a new treasurer and the success of the rail safety live learning programme, which has reached over 5,000 schoolchildren. Discussions included potential funding for local projects, support from ScotRail’s media team, and updates to the Rutherglen Station mural. Community events, such as Newton’s successful carol singing and upcoming workshops, were highlighted, along with the Samaritans’ Brew Monday and suicide prevention initiatives. CrossCountry reaffirmed funding commitments, while ScotRail shared progress on ticketless travel and the Rail 200 campaign. Plans for further collaboration and outreach continue.
