Britain’s rail companies are committed to keeping stations and trains as clean and safe as possible to help protect passengers and staff across the network.

Read on to learn more about what we are doing: /THREAD

Members of the #RailwayFamily like Eddie from @CrossCountryUK are ensuring:
High-touch areas on trains are thoroughly disinfected
Toilets are well stocked with soap and water
Carriages are checked regularly throughout the day

To help keep stations across the network clean, we are following public health guidelines closely.

Staff are ensuring ticket machines, escalators, surfaces, barriers, and seats are all deep cleaned regularly.

. @GreaterAnglia has invested in five new fogging guns to deep clean trains, stations and staff break rooms. https://twitter.com/GreaterAngliaPR/status/1260561359139475457

An independent report has found the cleanliness of @ScotRail trains improved by 11% from April 2019 to February 2020.

Efforts are being stepped up even further by staff like Jack to keep all trains as clean as possible to prevent coronavirus spreading. https://twitter.com/ScotRail/status/1259866604063453184

Thanks to changes made by @ColasRailUK to protect staff, such as increased sanitisation and new PPE stations, key engineering workers have been able to safely resume work on the extension of the Birmingham Westside Metro to Edgbaston.

We are doing all we can to keep the railway network clean to protect passengers and staff.

Please help us to help you by only travelling if it is essential, carrying hand sanitiser and remembering to wash your hands before and after travelling.
