GBRF augments intermodal services
The UK carrier has opened new sidings on the north side of its Peterborough yard which will connect its newly opened GBP 5.75 million (EUR 6.6 million) maintenance hub to the national railway network.
The opening follows three years of work between GB Railfreight (GBRF), Network Rail and the railway contractors KGJ Price. Several new points have been installed, slewing the existing track to create five intermodal length sidings accessible from both north and south, as well as additional capacity for spare wagons.
The new sidings will enable GBRF to run even more intermodal services, allowing to move an even wider range of goods by rail, the rail company said. (ben)
