Birmingham

This branch serves the membership within the Birmingham area who are not assigned to any company branches.

We have members who are employed by train operating companies, the Travel Trade and the multitude of railway infrastructure and rolling stock consultants and contractors who have developed in the area since railway privatisation. We also have a number of retired and semi-retired members who can contribute their wealth of experience in union and employment matters. Current branch membership is over 400.

All meetings will be on Monday evenings commencing at 17-30 in Amey/Owen Williams Railways’ offices on Smallbrook Queensway in Birmingham City Centre. To find these offices the directions are:-
