<p>Porterbrook has joined with Network Rail, the Rail Freight Group, Rail Delivery Group and RSSB to create an online version of the popular Rail Staff Carol Service.</p>
<p>This annual event, hosted by the Transport Benevolent Fund, is traditionally held at St Mary's Somers Town, in London. </p>
<p>With Covid restrictions in place the decision was made to pre-record seasonal readings from Andrew Haines, Maggie Simpson, Mark Phillips and Mary Grant. Our carols are led by London's Transport Choir.<br></p>
<p>Porterbrook thanks all our industry partners for supporting this year's virtual Carol Service. </p><p>We hope that by making this available on-line it will bring a little Christmas cheer to those railway colleagues who keep Britain moving over the festive period and throughout the year.<br></p>
<p>In place of the usual collection plate in support of the Transport Benevolent Fund’s work, there is the opportunity to donate on-line <a href="https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charity-web/charity/finalCharityHomepage.action?charityId=1004619" target="_blank">here</a>. </p><p>View the Rail Staff 2020 Carol Service here.<br></p><figure><iframe style="width: 500px; height: 281px;" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/mjKGdZmxf7o" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></figure>
