We were delighted to name a GWR train after inspirational Scout leader, Gill Clay as we celebrated 100 years of Scouting in Wales. A special ‘Great Westerners’ ceremony at Swansea station paid tribute to Gill’s lifetime of dedication to Scouting. #scouting #scouts #ScoutAdventures #greatwesterners The Scouts ScoutsCymru

Rail Transportation
Great Western Railway (GWR) provides high speed, commuter, regional and branch line train services.
About us
As one of the largest train companies in Britain, more than 100 million customers a year join us on board. When the Great Western Railway was built, it opened the West and Wales to trade and tourism. And now, along with our partners at Network Rail, we’re proud to have the chance to look after your railway.
As well as electrifying our main routes, and upgrading key stations, we have carried out the biggest upgrade of trains in the country.
But GWR isn’t just about new signs, uniforms, or even the colour of our trains. It’s about being different. With every smile we give, every bag we carry, and every snack we serve, we want your journey with us to be the best it can be.

Great Western Railway (GWR) reposted this
Arigato gozaimasu to the Central Japan Railway Company delegation of the UK/Japan Railway Exchange programme for visiting Great Western Railway (GWR)’s fast-charge battery train trial on our Greenford branch in West London this morning. It was great to welcome our first international visitors to the all-battery powered train that is at the forefront of innovation as we continue developing solutions for our future rolling stock needs across our network. Thanks too to Scott McCloud for organising, demonstrating collaboration in practice across TOCs and the world!
