Richard Clinnick joins Rail Business Daily as Editor of Inside Track Magazine

One of the world’s most respected editors and commentators, Richard Clinnick, has joined Rail Business Daily’s (RBD) news team as editor of Inside Track magazine.

Richard joins RBD from an international rail industry title where he was associate editor. Before that, he was head of news at a UK-focused rail magazine, which he first joined back in 2005.

A dedicated twitterer on the latest happenings in the UK rail industry, Richard is looking forward to taking over Inside Track from the June issue, when it becomes a monthly title.

On joining RBD Publications, Richard Clinnick said: “I am honoured to be joining a growing team which, in a short space of time, has positioned itself at the forefront of rail industry coverage.

“I cannot wait to get started on the new monthly Inside Track and hope it can quickly emulate the success of Rail Director and Rail Business Daily.”

Welcoming him to Business Daily Group, chief executive David McLoughlin said: “I am absolutely delighted to welcome Richard to RBD. We know that he will complement our current news team, led by industry stalwart Nigel Wordsworth, incredibly well – he is a fantastic addition.

“When we created Rail Business Daily a few years ago, our ambition was to gather around us the most reputable journalists and creative talent in the rail industry. Having Richard join us today is the latest step in that process and I am sure that our readers of Inside Track, and indirectly Rail Director and our websites, will notice the insight and experience that his presence brings.

“Richard is the latest in a series of key appointments that we have made recently. Only last week we announced nine new recruits – all of whom have become active members of Women in Rail. Combined with our existing team, we have a fantastic line-up that will be further invigorated when Chris Leech joins us from RSSB as managing director in June.”

Rail Business Daily publishes both Rail Director and Inside Track magazines, the RailBusinessDaily website and daily newsletter, and the Rail Insider website and weekly newsletter. It also assists the rail industry to do business through the RBD Community, RBD Marketing Services and RBD Advisory. These will shortly be joined by RBD Rail Recruiter – a new and highly innovative slant on the currently outdated rail industry recruitment job boards.
