  • Trenitalia C2c Announces Retirement of Julian Drury and Appointment of Ben Ackroyd
    Trenitalia c2c announces retirement of Julian Drury and appointment of Ben Ackroyd May 5, 2020 Trenitalia c2c has announced that current Managing Director Julian Drury will retire in September after 40 years in the rail industry, and that Ben Ackroyd will be appointed as his replacement. Julian first joined the rail industry in 1980 as a British Rail graduate traffic management trainee. He has been Managing Director at c2c since 2008, and was previously MD at Gatwick Express. Under Julian’s leadership, c2c has become firmly established as one of the UK’s most punctual train operators, setting the national records for punctuality over both a 4-week period and a full year. c2c also became the first train operator to introduce automatic compensation for delayed customers and a Smartcard system. Since Julian joined c2c, passenger numbers have grown by 50%, and the company has won a string of awards including the best train operator title at both the 2015 National Rail Awards and 2017 National Transport Awards. Julian said: “I joined the rail industry to work in public service and I’ve never lost that very strong sense of service in everything I’ve done. I really have been privileged and thrilled to be a part of making c2c the country’s most punctual and reliable railway and it has allowed me to work with many of the very best people I have ever known. But 40 years is a significant career and in September the time really will be right to make this change. I have huge respect and affection for all my colleagues at Trenitalia and I am totally committed to helping them and all of us to play our part over the coming months in restoring the nation’s services.” Ben Ackroyd joins c2c from Northern, the largest train operator outside London, where he is currently Engineering Director.
