Modern Railways is a monthly British magazine covering the rail transport industry, which was published by Ian Allan until March 2012 and Key Publishing since then. It has been published since 1962. The magazine was based originally in Shepperton, Surrey.
It has always been targeted at both railway professionals and serious amateurs, an aim which derives from its origins as an amalgamation of the enthusiast magazine Trains Illustrated and the industry journal The Locomotive in the hands of its first editor Geoffrey Freeman Allen.
It is currently edited by Philip Sherratt, after the retirement of James Abbott.[2] Regular contributors include Roger Ford, Ian Walmsley,[3] Alan Williams and Tony Miles. Informed Sources is a large section written regularly by Roger Ford and Pan Up is written by Ian Walmsley.
