Better rail access for Felixstowe
GB Railfreight has introduced a new daily rail service at Hutchison Ports Port of Felixstowe connecting the UK’s largest container port with Wakefield in Yorkshire. The new service is the 13th to be operated by GB Railfreight and the 12th daily rail connection to destinations in Yorkshire.
The train will initially feature a mix of wagon types, including two Eco Triples, two Q8s and eleven IKA Twins. The combination of a variety of wagons is significant, as it allows for enhanced flexibility, maximising the number of boxes that can be carried to better satisfy consumer demand and make more effective use of overall capacity, the port authority said.
