Network Rail Tree Felling Network Rail have felled a number of trees alongside the rail embankment in SE12 over the Easter holidays, despite it being nesting season and other animals producing young, such as fox cubs. Neighbours were not informed about the tree felling, only a notice of essential works to secure the embankment. I believe that Network Rail have a commitment to 'managing lineside as an asset, improving communication with nearby communities and leading cultural change within Network Rail around valuing nature and the environment'. According to Network Rail's response to the Varley report, there is 'a suite of template notification letters and leaflets to ensure that lineside neighbours and stakeholders are kept updated both before and after work takes place to manage vegetation on the railway. Examples of best practice communication ... have been produced.' These may well have been 'shared with the route teams [to] set a clear and consistent standard for vegetation management communications' but they certainly haven't been employed here. Not only were there bats, foxes, birds and other wildlife living in and around these trees, but the view from several houses on the street now goes straight through to the depot, which will be to the serious detriment of residents' wellbeing. I can't imagine the mindset that would deem it appropriate to undertake this kind of work without any consultation or at the very least notification of such an extreme step. A number of neighbours have complained to the Network Rail executive, including the Biodiversity Manager and PR Manager, we were informed the trees were either dead or dying, yet photos taken at the time show healthy trees being felled. We have also contacted our local MP and Councillor. Trees are still being felled this week and we are yet to get a satisfactory answer as to how this devasting damage to this rich habitat will be offset. Ironically Lewisham Council are proposing to make this a nature trail. NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

Crossing closure at Cononley They have closed a well-used pedestrian rail crossing and RIGHT OF WAY at Cononley because the horn on one of the LNER trains is not loud enough. It's been shut since November 2020, now extended to December 2021 and the alternative route is dangerous. Now making excuses about cutting back vegetation to improve sighting? - not good enough, sort the train out and open the crossing NOW. If you're not careful people will start to think you just want an excuse to close the crossing forever.

Network Rail says it has a great mental… Network Rail says it has a great mental health awareness.... wow they pushed me into a breakdown and when I went to management they just went and laughed with colleagues which made it worse and then they get rid of you as they don't know how to deal with it so find any reason to sack instead of really trying to help

Data collection scams - breach of data privacy Network Rail publishes entry level jobs that do not exist. I tried to apply for a job recently and after I registered with all my details, CV, employment history etc, my application was unsuccessful because I refused to be included in their "pool" of candidates for future consideration. After realising the scam I requested for deletion of my data and my careers hub account. It is called THE RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN. And now they play crazy and treat me as an employee and request for passport to proceed for deletion of my data!!! When I was only a candidate for a fake role!!! Network rail as it seems is a scam company breaching data privacy laws!!! Stay away and be careful when applying.

Disabled Harassement Disabled Harassement. This company have over the last 3 years bullied and harrassed my vunerable extremely ill disabled mother. They are experts in bullying an elderly lady and have absolutely no morals to speak of. If you write to them and have the evidence to show, it is ignored so they do not have to address their behaviour.
