National Rail Awards 2026 - Where excellence takes centre stage
View the 2026 shortlist here!
Judging has now taken place for RAIL's National Rail Awards 2026, the benchmark of excellence across Britain's railway industry, following another outstanding year of entries.
Often described as the 'Railway Oscars', the National Rail Awards honour the people, projects and organisations driving progress across the rail industry. From innovation and operational performance to sustainability, safety and customer experience, the awards spotlight those delivering real, measurable impact.
Recognition spans every level of the industry - from visionary leaders to frontline teams - celebrating engineering brilliance, environmental leadership and a shared commitment to a better railway.
The awards will also continue to recognise progress in accessibility, with a dedicated category celebrating initiatives that reduce barriers to independent rail travel.
The results will be revealed at the National Rail Awards ceremony, once again bringing together leaders and rail professionals from across the industry to recognise excellence and share best practice.
This year’s ceremony will take place on Thursday September 17, once again at London’s prestigious JW Marriott Grosvenor House in Park Lane, London.
