UK rail carrier buys e-shunters


GB Railfreight (GBRF) has added four new electric Class 18 hybrid + shunt locomotives to its fleet. They will be based at GBRF’s sites and used to support supply chain operations for Network Rail.

 

These services ensure that the materials and components that keep the railway safe and operational are on site whenever and wherever they are required, the carrier said.

 

The Class 18s are only one of several initiatives in GBRF’s decarbonisation strategy. The company has also ordered 30 brand new hybrid Class 99 locomotives that will enter service in 2025. (ben)
