DB Cargo Giving Railfreight A Boost - Safer Roads, Stronger Economy, Greener World.

DB Cargo UK is the UK's biggest railfreight provider and has just gone through a programme of restructuring and modernisation in response to changing patterns of trade. They are using new systems and improved IT to streamline processes and deliver a more reliant and resilient transport service. A key element in all this is a £6 million expansion of its steel coil warehousing facility in Wolverhampton at Horseley Fields, including the addition of a new internal rail line. This will then bring the storage, handling and re-distribution capacity up to 40,000 tonnes of steel in the form of 3,325 coils.

Tring Fire Station held a well-attended Open Day last Saturday, 4th August, 2018.

The Open Day was able to proceed without interruption with at least one engine present for the visitors to examine for most of the day.
