Forward Scotland has received a grant from the National Lottery to investigate the potential for community management of some parts of railway stations.

They'll be using the grant to map those stations which have the greatest potential for community involvement, which might enable the spaces within station buildings to be managed by local groups. Some similar ventures already exist, including the charity bookshop at Pitlochry station. You can find out more about the project on Forward Scotland's website.
