Social networking for railway professionals
A new website offers young people the chance to make professional connections in the rail industry. Young Railway Professionals (YRP) has launched their new website, complete with social networking functionality.
The network is intended to bring young people together across the rail industry into a professional online community.
Members sill be able to create their own profiles, link with colleagues and friends, write status updates, see a live activity feed, send private messages and RSVP to events online.
Paul Cooper, chairman of the Young Railway Professionals, says: “I’m really pleased to announce the launch of a new home of the Young Railway Professionals. We will shortly be entering our fourth year and, as our organisation has grown, we have been looking at ways of better meeting the needs of young people in our industry.
“We have invested in the creation of a bespoke website, designed to provide young people with access to a calendar of networking events in the industry, as well as the YRP online networking community where our members can create their own profiles and begin to connect with peers from around the world.”
The website is at: www.youngrailwayprofessionals.org
