About LW Rail

About LW Rail Magazine

LW Rail magazine is an online service to share and promote content relating to UK railways. It began as a father and son hobby, a project to teach website building skills and develop a greater understanding of social media platforms, design software and photo editing. 

Today LW Rail is more than a project. Today we operate as a not for profit organisation to develop and tell railway stories, share news, videos and photographs. 

We generate funds to run our site from the sale of merchandise and work with local and national organisations to build content. 

We are currently running month-long specials on different topics and we welcome suggestions.
