How to nominate your colleagues

If this sounds like anyone you know who works in rail, you can nominate them now by visiting the Heart of Gold Awards website.

Nominations close on 5 October and there will be a public vote to decide the winners in October.

The winners will each get a personalised Heart of Gold Award presented by RBF’s President, Pete Waterman OBE, at a special awards ceremony.  

This year’s event will be hosted by Railpen at their London offices on 26 November.
