Overview

• Greater Anglia will officially move into public ownership on October 12, 2025, under the Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) Act 2024.
• The transition follows South Western Railway's renationalisation earlier this month as part of Labour's phased rail reform agenda.
• The government projects up to £100 million in annual cost savings by eliminating management fees through nationalisation.
• Greater Anglia, the UK's most punctual operator and Train Operator of the Year, assures no changes to services, ticketing, or employee roles during the transition.
• Since 2012, Greater Anglia has invested £2 billion in upgrades, including a new train fleet and enhanced service quality, positioning it as a leader in the rail sector.
