Community rail in the United Kingdom is the support of railway lines and stations by local organisations, usually through community rail partnerships (CRPs) comprising railway operators, local councils, and other community organisations, and rail user groups (RUGs). Community railways are managed to fit local circumstances recognising the need to increase revenue, reduce costs, increase community involvement and support social and economic development. The Association of Community Rail Partnerships (ACoRP) supports its fifty or so member CRPs and also offers assistance to voluntary station friends groups that support their local stations through the station adoption scheme. Since 2005 the Department for Transport has formally designated a number of railway lines as community rail schemes in order to recognise the need for different, more appropriate standards than are applied to main line railway routes, and therefore make them more cost effective. ==Association of Community Rail Partnerships ==
The Association of Community Rail Partnerships is funded by the Department for Transport as an umbrella group to support CRPs and station friends groups. The association shares ideas and best practice among its members through various channels including conferences and seminars and a quarterly magazine ''Train Times'', also a monthly electronic newsletter. An annual Community Rail Awards event is held each autumn on a different community railway around the country each year.〔(ACoRP website )〕 There are more than fifty CRPs,〔Department for Transport, Rail Group (2005), ''Introduction to Community Rail''〕 most supporting just one line but some, such as the Devon and Cornwall Rail Partnership, encompass several nearby routes.
