Skipton-East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership
The mission of the Skipton-East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership (SELRAP) is to campaign for reinstatement of the strategic trans-Pennine route linking Colne (Lancashire) with Skipton (North Yorkshire) as part of the national rail network and to ensure that the trackbed and its structures are protected until that aim is attained.

Famous quotes containing the words rail, action and/or partnership:
“If goodness were only a theory, it were a pity it should be lost to the world. There are a number of things, the idea of which is a clear gain to the mind. Let people, for instance, rail at friendship, genius, freedom, as long as they will—the very names of these despised qualities are better than anything else that could be substituted for them, and embalm even the most envenomed satire against them.”
—William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
“Statecraft is soulcraft. Just as all education is moral education because learning conditions conduct, much legislation is moral legislation because it conditions the action and the thought of the nation in broad and important spheres of life.”
—George F. Will (b. 1941)
“Society is indeed a contract.... It is a partnership in all science; a partnership in all art; a partnership in every virtue, and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
