The new intermodal service connects Southampton and the Hams Hall Railfreight Terminal in the West Midlands. GB Railfreight (GBRF) will operate five trains a week to Hams Hall with a further option to link Southampton with Mossend International Railfreight Terminal in Scotland. Final mile delivery is available at both terminals.
For this service, the carrier will deploy its new high-density FEA-G intermodal wagons, which will significantly increase the volume of cargo that can be transported on each journey. The new train is part of DP World’s trial modal shift incentivisation programme for cargo owners to use rail within 225 km of the port of Southampton. (ben)
