Excellent! Who knew that people would travel by train, more sustainably, to visit our great @uknationalparks? Well, @MEMRAP1 knows - aiming to reconnect directly Manchester, @peakdistrict & Derby. @PeaksDalesRail: another great opportunity to reduce car (& HGV) use. #NetZero

@CllrBarryLewis It is...! So it's good to see local plans being developed around the UK to help deliver HMG's #NetZero target. For example, @DevonCC now has its own dedicated website: devonclimateemergency.org.uk Clearly, #BuildingBackBetterGreenerFaster will be a huge challenge. #LevellingUp
We're pleased to share that @PeaksDalesRail, supported by @MEMRAP1, has submitted it's #RestoringYourRailway Round 3 application to the 'Ideas Fund'. Find out more at: peaksanddalesrailway.com/5-peaks-and-da… Thanks to @robertlargan, @nigelmills, @JaneMHunt, @LilianGreenwood and @William_Wragg

UK needs #RestoringYourRailway #BeechingReopenings to provide connectivity to support #ModalShiftToRail - essential to reducing air pollution. We would be pleased to share with you @grantshapps how the Peaks and Dales line could help to tackle air pollution across the Midlands!

Leading edge thinking from other visionary #RestoringYourRailway projects too: * Enhancing access; * Securing the tourist economy; * Getting cars & HGVs off local roads to reduce traffic noise & help meet #NetZero targets. #BuildBackBetterGreenerFaster #ProjectSpeed @MEMRAP1

Visionary leaders are taking proactive steps to help achieve HMG's #NetZero emissions target @chhcalling As #ModalShiftToRail is the key, so decarbonising transport in England will similarly require railway electrification, new railways, & reopened railways e.g. @PeaksDalesRail

We see the #value that #investment in #railway #infrastructure brings to the local #economy. We see the environmental benefits of #ModalShiftToRail to help deliver #NetZero targets. We see how to realise these benefits for 13.25m visitors to @peakdistrict #RestoringYourRailway

@MEMRAP1 @peakdistrict @peak_chair @CllrBarryLewis @Dines4Dales @robertlargan @PeaksDalesRail More than 16,000 people have already signed the petition calling for this reopening, to reconnect Manchester and the East Midlands directly by rail, and provide sustainable transport for @peakdistrict communities. Proactive Plan for #NetZero Emissions. change.org/p/re-open-the-…
Fantastic to see the petition top 16,000 already! If you've not already signed, please do consider doing so. @PeaksDalesRail + @MEMRAP1 with great support from eg @RailfutureEMids & @BroomheadEnvir1 are working hard to get this iconic railway re-opened. change.org/p/re-open-the-…
Who indeed?! Access to/from and views of glorious countryside, by train. As National Parks work to hit their #NetZero emissions targets, we'll see fewer visitors in cars but more by train. #ModalShiftToRail for work, education & leisure. @peakdistrict @PeaksDalesRail @MEMRAP1

"We are talking about... regular every day steam in the working timetable as ‘Q paths’, even for the day-out excursions, with the blessing of Network Rail." This is the integration the DfT was seeking, and is a model also proposed by @PeaksDalesRail therailwayhub.co.uk/12045/keeping-…

@Corbers_dean @christianwolmar @Derbyshirecc Do take a peek @PeaksDalesRail & @MEMRAP1 websites! With the support of 4 MPs, a compelling case has been made to #RestoringYourRailway If you've not yet signed the petition, please do: change.org/p/re-open-the-… Over 15,500 people agree with you! #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone
Leicester, Loughborough, Derby still lack their #CrossBoundary Manchester connection. #SustainableDevelopment calls for @PeaksDalesRail to return. @Transport4North, @MidsConnect time to #GetPeaksandDalesRailwayDone
Important work & good progress. Would be good to see target dates shown in the completed #IntegratedRailPlan for the openings of new/High Speed lines and for the #BeechingReopenings such as @PeaksDalesRail This'll help boost confidence + catalyse inward investment/regeneration.

We travelled on this line on Saturday, for a great day out on #Dartmoor and in Okehampton. How wonderful to have railway lines coming back! More! More!
Rail is inherently green. 10% of passenger mile journeys are by rail but only 1% of transport emissions are by trains. We must do more and further green the electricity supplies where trains are already electric - Andy Bagnall at #theraildebate #Lab21
@CllrBarryLewis It is...! So it's good to see local plans being developed around the UK to help deliver HMG's #NetZero target. For example, @DevonCC now has its own dedicated website: devonclimateemergency.org.uk Clearly, #BuildingBackBetterGreenerFaster will be a huge challenge. #LevellingUp
The final round of #RestoringYourRailway ideas fund has now closed. Fantastic to have received over 85 bids across England & Wales to restore lines and stations closed during the Beeching cuts🚉. Successful bids will be announced this summer 📢.
Good meeting of our #EastMids #Freeport working group this afternoon. Making progress to turn our bid into reality. That followed a meeting of our @EMDevCorp Exec this morning. Business case ready for submission. Very exciting developments in our region. #TeamPlace #collaboration
@MEMRAP1 would like to congratulate @JaneMHunt - our supporter MP. The freeport for @EMA_Airport and elsewhere has been won. Somewhere new for @PeaksDalesRail to serve.
@MEMRAP1 wondered what you had found @ChinleyGroup ! We look forward to seeing you there on Wednesday. Our study bid to Restoring Your Railway @transportgovuk is ready and due to go in from Promoter @PeaksDalesRail later today.
Here's an interesting webinar on the 10th March 2021 @robertlargan @CBTransport @officialtfgm @Sustrans @ChinleyCheese businesspeakdistrict.com/events-mec/rei…
Quite! And certainly, with the legal requirement to achieve #NetZero and therefore an increasing focus on securing #ModalShiftToRail, plus of course HMG's #LevellingUp & #BuildBackBetterGreenerFaster policy agenda, there's an excellent strategic case for @PeaksDalesRail too...
Nice to see @Andrew4Pendle paying a compliment to @PeaksDalesRail sponsor @robertlargan for his part in getting this vital improvement agreed with @transportgovuk and for @Transport4North. @PeaksDalesRail to follow, in due course...

@MEMRAP1 thinks this might be a taste of the future #GetPeaksandDalesRailwayDone

Regional connectivity means effective links between the major cities, as NIC stated - its what rail does well. Leicester, Derby to/from Manchester are still waiting for theirs - enabled by @PeaksDalesRail #InvestInInfrastructure #ModalShiftToRail #RestoringYourRailway
@NatInfraCom suggest you talk to our friends @MEMRAP1 about infrastructure #resilience... Reinstating the Peaks and Dales line would provide considerable network resilience for a currently very crowded part of the railway network. #InvestInInfrastructure #ModalShiftToRail
Looks excellent @PeaksDalesRail Perfect for charter excursions to major tourist destinations...
The re-invented ‘Midland Pullman’ running empty stock through Narborough this morning en route to St Pancras for its inaugural trip! Looks magnificent👌 @bbcemt #midlandpullman @BlabyDC @fonsnarborough @BBCLeicester @RailwayMagazine
@DJViles @CharterRail Exactly! But look at the work @MEMRAP1 & @PeaksDalesRail are doing to reinstate it: more on their websites. Clearly still early days, but with 7m people in the Manchester <=> Derby/Nottingham catchment & 13.25m visitors p.a. to the Peak District, plenty of people would benefit.
@CharterRail Looks excellent. And good to see the proper route map @PeaksDalesRail Definitely one for @MEMRAP1 to savour... #ModalShiftToRail
A lovely launch of the Midland Pullman today with Wonderful food and beautifully turned out staff!
Great @CBItweets report outlining the way we build back better from COVID. Particularly welcome recommendations to support Sub-national Transport Bodies like Midlands Connect, our role is more important now than ever. cbi.org.uk/media/5964/202…
Great to see cross party support for @Hs2East & the #HS2 East Midlands Hub to be #Toton Backed by others across #Nottingham & #Notts as well as in #Yorkshire #Leeds at Westminster Hall debate I organised this week #LevellingUp cannot be done in part; it must be done in full
🤝Support from both sides of the House and leaders across the Midlands 🏗️Will create more jobs, new homes and spark wider regeneration 📈Evidence showed greater suitability than other options, incl. East Midlands Parkway @LilianGreenwood is right, Toton must be EMids' HS2 hub
One for @PeaksDalesRail and @MEMRAP1 c.c. @RailfutureEMids
Very late, slightly damp but still worth going out to see. The return of the Blue Pullman
Early sight of the Blue Pullman... reincarnated. It'll ride better, and go faster than its well-known forebears... and it will certainly turn heads. Let's #GetPeaksAndDalesRailwayDone then, amongst other things, it can run along an iconic route too. @PeaksDalesRail @MEMRAP1
