*Phase 1 (Friday 27 September until Sunday 20 October) *

The aim of this campaign is to raise awareness of planned rail engineering work over the Christmas and New Year bank holiday period, encouraging leisure and business passengers to plan ahead and check if their train journey is affected before they travel.

After extensive passenger and stakeholder research, we have developed a new creative route which is an evolution of the previous stick person creative design. This is the second time we’ve used this new creative design.

Phase 1 (soft launch) will run from 27 Sept until 20 Oct on owned media before Phase 2 (full launch) is promoted from 21 Oct until 2 Jan across all channels including paid media. Phase 2 will feature a slightly different creative with strengthened messaging and a more festive style.

These campaigns are no longer live or being promoted to public and passengers. However, if you would like to use these resources please ask permission from Network Rail’s marketing team: marketing@networkrail.co.uk
