Go-op Co-operative Ltd.,[3] branded as Go-op, is an open access train operating company, proposing to operate services in South West England between Swindon, Taunton and Weston-super-Mare. It aims to become the first cooperatively owned train operating company in the United Kingdom,[4] to improve access to the public transport infrastructure through open access rail services linking main lines to smaller market towns, and by co-ordinating services with light rail, bus links and car pools. In November 2024, Go-op's proposals were approved by the Office of Rail and Road, subject to certain conditions.[2]
