Railway Mission

The railway industry has undergone dramatic changes over the years, but those who work throughout the modern network continue to face many challenges and problems in the 21st century.

That objective is still the driving force of the Mission as it seeks to provide independent confidential help and support to any rail industry employee, whether active or retired, at home, hospital or workplace.

Marriage breakdown, domestic upheaval, serious illness, bereavement, alcohol and drug dependency can all be deeply distressing and affect not only the quality of the life of the person concerned but also their families and colleagues.

The International Railway Mission (IRM) is an interdenominational federation which connects Christian fellowships with rail staff all over Europe.

IRM holds a conference every three years, where the members and supporters of the Railway Missions can exchange experiences and enjoy fellowship with other participants.
