  'Rail playing an increasingly important role’
_______________________________________________________________
type Press release
Responding to figures published today by the Office of Rail and Road, which show record numbers of rail passengers travelling by train, Michael Roberts, director general of the Rail Delivery Group, which represents Network Rail and operators, said:
“The railway plays an increasingly important role in Britain, underpinning jobs and driving economic growth. After two decades of growth in people and goods travelling by train, our nation leads the way on rail in Europe.
"There is much to do to, particularly to ensure that more trains arrive punctually and we keep passengers better informed when disruption occurs, but good value fares and a focus on improving services are attracting more people to travel by train."
