Amaro joins ‘Station to Station’ Rail Benefit Fund challange

For the next few weeks we’re joining teams from across the rail industry by running over 2,000 MILES in a virtual ‘Station to Station’ Challenge!

And whilst we don’t like to blow our own trumpet (OK, maybe just a little) not only are our MD and Engineering Director way out in front, 1 of our teams is dominating the leader board whilst the 2nd is close behind in 3rd.

With runners tracking their real-world activity along a virtual route, a step challenge app sees them moving along the map of the UK, calling at key stations… and raising money for charity in the process!

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗢𝗔𝗟? Teams from Amaro, Avanti West Coast, Clemtech, Cross Country Trains, Engauged, Freightliner, Furrer + Frey, Porterbrook, RIA, RBF, RSSB, Railpen and VTG Rail are aiming to raise £7,000 for vulnerable rail workers.
