British Transport Police are revolutionizing rail safety with remote-controlled drones launched from “Drone in a Box” stations—hundreds of miles away in London. These aerial units, active for 25 minutes, deliver live footage to officers on the ground, helping resolve incidents like missing persons and train breakdowns. Already deployed across seven sites—including Manchester, the second busiest—these drones tackle trespassing hotspots, enhance situational awareness, and assist in serious crime investigations. Chief Constable Lucy D’Orsi aims to make railway trespassing unthinkable, using this tech to boost public safety and streamline operations as the program expands nationwide.
