Young Rail Professionals (YRP) is a non-profit organisation that exists to promote the rail industry, inspire the next generation, and develop early-career professionals.

Founded in 2009, we support students and individuals in the first 15 years of their journey in the rail industry through free membership, networking events, outreach programmes, and professional development opportunities.

With active committees across the UK and Ireland, YRP runs projects including Railweek, Politics in Rail, Into Rail, Young Rail Tours, and Heritage Volunteering.

Our mission is to build a connected, inclusive, and thriving future for the rail sector by empowering young professionals at every stage of their journey.

Join us to be part of the movement shaping tomorrow’s railway industry.
