Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre is our 135-acre rail connected site in Warwickshire - a £75m investment in the future of rail innovation
We're building the UK's only continuous testing loop, due to commence operations in early 2026.
With first-of-a-kind power conversion technology for discontinuous electrification, the 3.5km loop will support the delivery of the next generation of electric and multi-mode fleets to the UK railway.
Since taking over the Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre in June 2021, we have made significant investments to modernise and enhance the facilities across the site. This includes high quality office and conference spaces, warm and tepid rolling stock storage, an Asset Management Facility with three pitted lanes, and a training centre.
Sustainability is key to our Long Marston development, and we are committed to supporting the local community.
