The magazine was set up by Peter Fox, who wrote a monthly "Grumpy Old Man" Column. It is owned by Platform 5 publications. Fox was editor-in-chief of the magazine until his death in 2011.[3]
Robin Sisson, the rail campaigner, worked for Today's Railways UK as assistant editor, under editor-in-chief Peter Fox, from 2006 until his death in 2008.[4] Sisson wrote the monthly "Just the Ticket" feature.[5]
Production of the magazine was suspended in April 2020 due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and resumed with the July 2020 issue.[6]
