If you have a question about this talk, please contact Sebastian Gibson.

We are joined by Christopher Lynch, Principal Transport Planner at Crossrail 2. The new proposed cross-city, underground, line in London has gained significant momentum with the route now proposed as Cheshunt (Cambridge to London Liverpool Street line) and Epsom (South Western Railway). The line shall be building on the success of Crossrail, a new line which has employed tens of thousands of graduates. It shall be an exciting and interesting talk about the planning of the line, it route and proposed construction. You heard it first at the CURC !

Mixed audience, from many different subject areas. All welcomed to come.

The talk is followed by a Members Formal at Sidney Sussex College – places are FREE to new student members, usually £10, and are strictly limited. Please email the CURC for further details.

The presentation, Q&A session open to the floor and dinner is a perfect chance to talk to Dr Dix about plans for Crossrail 2, or even specific graduate opportunities in the design and construction. (You can also ask about the trains!)

About the CURC :

Founded in 1911 from the Cambridge University branch of The Railway Club, the CURC is the second oldest railway enthusiast club in Britain! The CURC tries to arrange an event in Cambridge every week during Full Term. On most Wednesdays or Fridays this involves an invited speaker giving an illustrated talk on a specific subject, and this is almost always a professional from the rail industry or preservation. We’ve had big names in the past, including senior managers from several Train Operating Companies.

We also visit railway sites termly including depots, signalling centres and industrial railways for members.

We give you a chance to meet the top employers from across the industry and have huge success in our members going onto top Graduate employment within the railway industry…whether HS2 , Balfour Beatty, Crosscountry, Network Rail, DfT etc…

Membership for students costs £10 per year or £25 for life membership. You can pay an annual membership now and upgrade to life later – and life does mean life. We charge £3 at the door for non-members, upon your third entry to a talk (first two talks are free). So come and try us out for free, gain exclusive access to key railway professionals and depots and you might just want to become a member! (We won’t tell anyone you are ;) )
