Community Rail Partnership
Our Community Rail Partnership aims to develop links with schools and local businesses associated with our local rail services, and to enhance sustainable transport links in the wider area.
Rail User Group
The Rail User Group campaigns on behalf of our three stations. The aim of the group is the retention, improvement and greater usage of the Cambridge-King’s Cross line between Royston and Cambridge.
Station Gardens
Meldreth, Shepreth and Foxton stations have community-supported station gardens. Local residents, schools and businesses, maintain the gardens year round. Planters enhance the station platforms.
