Network Rail Consulting Inc. is the North American subsidiary of Network Rail Consulting Ltd, the international consulting arm of Network Rail - Britain's rail infrastructure owner and operator.
Unlike other consultancies, we actually run a railroad network and we are accountable for its performance every day. We’ve got hands-on experience at creating solutions to the same challenges that face North America’s rail owners and operators.
Better still; we’ve got the kind of can-do attitude that drives effective change.
In the past ten years we have:
We operate out of our strategic hub in Washington DC where we are able to deploy the right mix of people, skills and expertise to successfully deliver projects regardless of scale, complexity or location.
Presently we have provided consultancy services for clients across the railroad industry including Amtrak, California High Speed Rail Authority, Federal Railroad Administration, Infrastructure Ontario and New York City Transit.
Network Rail owns, operates and develops Britain’s railway – 32,000 kilometres of track, 30,000 bridges, tunnels and viaducts and thousands of signals, level crossings and stations– including the largest 20 that we manage.
In partnership with train operators we help people take more than 1.7bn journeys by rail every year - double the number of 1996 - and move hundreds of millions of tonnes of freight, saving almost 8m lorry journeys. We’re investing £50bn in the railway to deliver more frequent, more reliable, safer services and brighter and better stations.
Britain has one of the highest customer satisfaction ratings of any rail system in the world and is the safest railway in Europe.
Since 2002, we’ve been part of the latest chapter in the nearly 200-year history of Britain’s railway
Rail was invented in Britain and that’s why we’re so proud to be playing our part in its modern story, honouring this legacy while delivering a better railway for Britain’s future.
We’re committed to continuing the great success story of rail in Britain, following in the spirit of engineering inspiration, innovation and determination that underpins two centuries of history.
Modernisation using smarter ways of working has delivered more frequent, more reliable, safer services and brighter and better stations
