The site contains editorial covering a wide range of rail developments, both in the UK and around the world. Current features include an article on the next generation of high-speed trains and another on the progress being made in the construction of the high-speed rail link between the the Channel Tunnel and Central London. Worldwide developments are also examined, with (for instance) an overview of the Bering Strait mega-project proposal to create a rail link across the 53-mile strait between North America and Asia.
One of the site's key functions is to act as a portal to the websites of many rail networks in countries in Europe, Australasia and the Americas. Visitors can use these links to find information about costs, offers and destinations and in some cases book tickets direct from a network's website.
Global corporate brand exposure related to rail travel is promised to sponsors of the site, providing substantial corporate identity exposure and leading to business development opportunities.
