Whether you want to campaign passionately for a bigger better railway or just share our interest in more reliable rail services and rail reopenings, please join Railfuture here.
Members and subscribers both receive our magazine, Railwatch, four times a year, information from their local Railfuture branch and invitations to events.

How to Join Us!
Membership of Railfuture is by an annual membership fee.
We have a choice of 'traditional' membership and 'paperless' membership. Both give you the same rights (e.g. you can stand in elections both to your local branch and the national Board of Directors), but with the latter (which is only £10 a year) Railfuture will communicate with you exclusively by email. Click Paperless for this option.
Traditional membership
This entitles you to receive Railwatch through the post along with the newsletters for your main branch, AGM and other important information can also be sent by post (but you can set your preferences for a mixture of email and post, for example). The subscription rate is £20 for individuals (£22 for joint), £14 if aged under 26, £25 for Rail User Groups, Local Authorities, and £35 for Businesses.
Please select the category of membership you or your organisation require from the first drop-down list below, enter a promotional code (if you have one) and click on the 'buy now' button. Current members of Young Rail Professionals (YRP) may join at the 'Under 26' rate, but please mention this in the PayPal notes. Then click on the 'buy now' button (you can pay using a debit/credit card or a PayPal account - we just use the PayPal website in all cases).
