First aluminium cement wagons for the UK

摘要

The UK's first aluminium bogie cement wagons were unveiled recently when VTG delivered 15 of the pioneering rolling stock to Castle Cement's Ribblesdale manufacturing facility in Clitheroe, Lancashire. The first of their kind to be used on British tracks, the wagons also mark the return to rail transportation to Scotland for the cement provider. Rob Brook, VTG Rail UK's managing director said: "We are pleased to be at the forefront of freight rolling stock technology with these aluminium bogie tank wagons and are delighted to be working with Castle, our long standing customer, to put cement back on track to Scotland."
