Britains Suburbs Are Broken, Heres The Solution | #Railnatter 306 Gareth Dennis 2026-04-28 | This month, the Foundation for Integrated Transport released its paper on decarbonising suburban transport in Britain. Led by Jonathan Bray, it looks at the key challenges with providing adequate transport options to Britain's suburban communities, it picks out the main lessons we can learn from other cities that are way ahead of the UK on this, and makes a series of recommendations for the UK government.But are they enough? As ever, we'll dig in together to find out.Report here: integratedtransport.org.uk/new-report-decarbonising-suburban-transport-ways-of-thinking-and-actingSupport #Railnatter at patreon.com/garethdennis.

The Secret to Fixing Britains Railways | #Railnatter 305 Gareth Dennis 2026-04-22 | Programmes not projectsWhat if we've been getting railway upgrades wrong for decades? What if big, grand, finite projects were about the worst way to deliver the change to transport Britain so desperately needs? By looking at what the Transpennine Route Upgrade is delivering in detail, including the latest look at some massive civil engineering, we'll ask ourselves: "What if the secret to modernising a nation’s infrastructure isn't a grand opening ceremony, but a series of tiny, invisible victories?"Support #Railnatter at patreon.com/garethdennis.

This train TRANSFORMED Britain’s railways | #Railnatter 302 Gareth Dennis 2026-04-02 | This week we are talking about Network Rail's PLPR train - the incredible and now pretty experienced train that put machine learning into practice in a way that makes today's AI boosters look more like hucksters than they already are. Alex Cusdin joins us to talk through the train and its tech, and tell the story of how it came into being.Capturing an incredible 18TB of data a day, this train captures 70,000 photos a second to enable a very high resolution view of the track to automate and improve inspection, in the process making railways safer. This is an example, now well proven, of how technologies can be applied to make better use of skilled people, rather than displacing them. And it's about to be replaced.Support #Railnatter at patreon.com/garethdennis. Merch at https://merch.railnatter.uk. Join in the discussion at https://discord.railnatter.uk.
