Scenic rail view competition

To mark Better Transport Week, Community Rail Network (through their Scenic Rail Britain campaign) and Campaign for Better Transport are inviting you to share ‘scenic views’ from your train seat – you could be in with a chance of winning a £100 rail travel voucher.

One of the most wonderful things about train travel is sitting back and watching the views roll past the window. We want to celebrate that! Simply take a snap (or dig one out from a past trip) and post on X, Bluesky or Instagram, making sure you use the hashtag #scenicrailview.
