<h3>Sustainability initiatives</h3>
<p>Exciting rail innovations, such as hybrid and hydrogen powered trains, are being developed and tested at the Rail Innovation Centre.  </p>
<p><a href="{entry:11451@1:url}">HydroFLEX</a>, the UK’s first hydrogen-ready passenger train, was developed at the site before it was presented at COP26 in Glasgow to world leaders including HRH The Prince of Wales.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We’re also working with Network Rail and other local nature organisations to support their work in the Midlands to protect habitats and open up wildlife corridors. </p>
