Does anyone have any experience / knowledge of buying property from Network Rail - there's a kink in the fence between us, our neighbours, and the railway line - straightening that kink would give us another 5m^2 of garden, and not encroach on the tracks.
Generally, if the land is not required for operational purposes, you will be able to negotiate with NR. Phone the national enquiries line and ask to be put in touch with the local Maintenance Protection Coordinator.
