Last night we went big 💪🏼 . The third successful Jumbo trial from Tunstead to Wembley but with a record 44 wagons totalling 4234t behind the draw bar of 66604 and 66603. That’s over 3100t of aggregate. @RailFreight @TarmacLtd

Freightliner has successfully completed a trial running of a ‘Jumbo’ aggregates service between the Peak District and London for customers @TarmacLtd
At 3,840 tonnes, this is the heaviest aggregates train ever to have operated on this route.

Great to catch up with Heather Waugh from @RailFreight on International Women's Day, to hear about her role in keeping vital #RailFreight moving. Heather talks about the apprehension before joining, and how it turned out completely different!

Today we joined with @LNER and @networkrail in remembrance of the 20th Anniversary of the Great Heck Train Crash when we sadly lost driver Steve Dunn.
Our thoughts are with all those impacted by this tragic incident.

The Freightliner team was pleased to assist, at short notice, in hauling two cranes to site to enable these works to take place.
🏁Formula One pit stop-style repairs were carried out in record time at Ayno Junction last week!
🤝This team effort is seriously impressive: @balfourbeatty @atkinsglobal @VolkerWesselsUK @RailFreight and TSO.
