Blake Jones, Freightliner\u2019s Managing Director of UK Rail said: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs the first Freight Operating Company to develop standard-height 40ft platform wagons, and the first to introduce the Shortliner (Ecofret) wagon, Freightliner has a proud history of setting the standards for innovative and sustainable wagon solutions in the UK. As the largest intermodal rail freight operator in the UK, Freightliner is committed to driving decarbonisation, which is at the heart of our strategic focus and aligns us directly with customer expectations. We value our relationship with Beacon and their support with the FFA-G wagon, which further enhances the environmental benefits of rail and makes an even greater contribution to bringing all greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050.“<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
