The business is a 50:50 consortium owned by NedRailways, the UK subsidiary of Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS) and Serco Group. NS, or Dutch Railways, is the state railway company of the Netherlands. Serco, a UK-based public company, is an international provider of outsourced public sector services, and an operator of
public transport systems such as London's Docklands Light Railway.

The objective of the joint venture is to operate passenger rail services in Great Britain. [cite web|url=http://www.serco-nedrailways.com/|title=Welcome to Serco-NedRailways|accessdate=2008-04-15]

The joint venture also submitted an unsuccessful bid for the West Midlands passenger rail franchise period that began in 2007 (awarded to London Midland.) [cite news
