According to the International Railway Journal, the global rail market was valued at £141bn in 2018 with much of that value stemming from Asia and the USA. Yorkshire and the Humber is home to several key rail industry players as well as supply chain companies. Doncaster’s National College for High Speed Rail, training thousands of engineers each year; provides the hub for Yorkshire incubating future business talent. With £88bn of investment in rail in the UK in the coming years, the opportunity to match global demand with local expertise has never been greater.
