The proposed Feasibility Account will explore the premise that, to bring about a significant reduction in UK CO2 emissions from transport by 2050, rail system capacity and use will need to increase by a factor of 10 on current levels . Halving total CO2 emissions from rail transport over the same period gives a reduction in CO2 emissions per tonne- or passenger km by a factor of 20. This is a major challenge, and the potential barriers are manifold. They encompass economics, human behaviour, societal norms and social acceptance as well as technical, operational and political factors. Radical thinking in all of these areas is needed, covering work and travel patterns, incentivising rail travel above other modes, improving its attractiveness, optimising system capacity and spreading use, and overcoming societal, political and economic constraints on the development of new lines. It will be necessary to consider all types of railways, including metro systems and light rail, commuter, long-distance and rural passenger services, as well as freight. It is this radical thinking across this range of disciplines in combination that the feasibility account proposes to deliver.

拟议的可行性账户将探讨这样一个前提：为了到 2050 年大幅减少英国交通运输中的二氧化碳排放，铁路系统的容量和使用需要在当前水平上增加 10 倍。将同期铁路运输的二氧化碳排放总量减半，可以将每吨或客公里的二氧化碳排放量减少 20 倍。这是一项重大挑战，潜在的障碍是多方面的。它们涵盖经济、人类行为、社会规范和社会接受度以及技术、操作和政治因素。所有这些领域都需要激进的思考，涵盖工作和旅行模式，激励铁路旅行高于其他方式，提高其吸引力，优化系统容量和扩大使用，并克服新线路开发的社会、政治和经济限制。有必要考虑所有类型的铁路，包括地铁系统和轻轨、通勤、长途和农村客运服务以及货运。可行性账户提出的正是这种跨越一系列学科的激进思维的结合。
