Porterbrook has been at the heart of Britain’s railway for over 25 years and owns a quarter of the national passenger rail fleet. We are pleased to present the Business Innovation Award this year. Innovation is a key part of what we do. Just a few miles away from Stratford-on-Avon at our Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre (RIC), our engineers and partners are developing and testing the UK’s first hydrogen-powered passenger train HydroFLEX. In the year since we took over Long Marston RIC, many local businesses have played an important part in modernising and enhancing the facilities at the site.
