Two hundred years after the first modern railway train ran in Britain, and on the eve of the creation of Great British Railways, our railway is marking the moment with the launch of a new national timepiece.
This new clock is the result of an international competition run by Network Rail in partnership with the Royal Institute of British Architects and the Design Museum.
Rail Clock takes its place at the heart of the railway just as the industry begins a new journey back together as one organisation.
More details will be share here after 12pm on Thursday 16 October.
