The carrier has secured a new three-year maintenance deal with fellow railfreight company GB Railfreight (GBRF).
The agreement will see DB Cargo UK work closely with GBRF’s engineering team to drive locomotive performance and provide professional engineering support.
The aim is to over the maintenance of ten Class 60 locomotives as well as offer technical in-field support including regular servicing whilst improving reliability.
The Class 60 locomotives which have entered service will allow GBRF to run heavier and longer trains, bringing environmental benefits, as longer trains are more efficient. The locomotives will mainly be used to haul biomass to power stations. (ben)
