Railfuture organisation

Although a membership organisation, Railfuture is constituted as a limited company, thus reducing the liability on members; each member is effectively an equal shareholder with other members. Railfuture therefore is required to hold an Annual General Meeting each year, and also to hold Elections each year to the Board of Directors, chosen from and by our members. The results are announced at the AGM.

We have an Honorary President, Christian Wolmar, and a number of Vice Presidents who advise Railfuture and help to raise our profile.

View or download the Railfuture Member's Handbook which is intended as a guide to give new members a basic understanding of what Railfuture is all about and as a pointer to where to look for more detailed information. All members have a Resolution of Problems process available, and all members are bound by a Code of Conduct. That includes the elected Board of Directors, who additionally have their own Code of Conduct.
