Operational railway land is not subject to rates.

Ah HA! A hidden subsidy.
ARe any of the following subject to rates?
1. Highway facilities.
2. Pipelines
3. Port facilities.
4. Waterways.
5. Air traffic control facilities.
6. Airports.

Most are listed at:

http://www.voa.gov.uk/business_rates/RLI/Scats/scat.htm

But it doesn't show the level of rates applied to each of those special
categories.

But you can search by category at
http://ratinglists.voa.gov.uk/irl2k5/mainController?action=InitialiseApp&listYear=2000& lang=E

The 23 items listed, with a number since deleted, for cat 231, Railways
& tramways, seems rather short. Clearly some railway lands are more
operational than others.
