Article Begins:

"ALL ABOARD FOR ALEX'S RAIL CAMPAIGN

Blind Section member Alex Scott has a history of campaigning for
better transport for disabled people in Scotland. He was heavily
involved in a drive to get concessionary travel for disabled people.
But he has not stopped there.

Alex is working with a new campaign, Better Rail Services, aimed at
getting the Scottish Government to reopen closed routes and stations.
"Rail transport is all about linking communities together, that's why
Community is involved. It's good for jobs and the environment too", he
said. "That's why I'm urging Community members across Scotland and the
rest of the UK to lobby their MSPs and MPs to bring our rail system
into the 21st century".

Alex is also a strong supporter of the HS2 project to create a
high-speed rail network linking London to the north. He wants HS2
extended into Scotland much sooner than currently planned.

Community is also backing the HS2 campaign because the union believes
it is the kind of major infrastructure project that will help to get
the economy moving and reduce the north-south divide.
