And the new HQ for Britain’s railways is . . . | Business

We will soon learn the location that the great British public has chosen to be the home of Great British Railways, the name of the new, enlarged Network Rail, which will oversee the trains as well as track and is seeking a permanent headquarters.

Great British Railways (GBR) will come to life some time in the next couple of years, a “single guiding mind” for train contractors and infrastructure managers and under the ultimate control of the secretary of state for transport, funded by the taxpayer. As an accountable public body, it is in effect British Rail MkII.
