UK: a new zero-carbon end-to-end service


UK’s newest train operator Varamis Rail has joined forces with Network Rail, Eversholt, Steer Consultancy and wider logistics partners to launch a fully electric and zero carbon freight service.

 

The service runs between Scotland and the Midlands, Monday to Friday. Targeted at express parcels, retailers, and third-party delivery companies, it will primarily focus on next day deliveries of consumer goods.

 

Eversholt Rail has converted a number of fully electric four-car trains formerly used in passenger service to enable them to carry freight while Network Rail provides the necessary operating licences, contracts, and train paths for the service to operate. (ben)
