High speed freight trial starts
The first high speed Channel Tunnel freight train arrived in St Pancras station yesterday morning, a trial that Eurotunnel said could herald next-day delivery from continental Europe. Euro Carex, a group of transport firms and hauliers, said the 120 tonne delivery “clearly shows the interest of strategic players in the logistics field… in linking their infrastructures to key European economic centres in order to benefit businesses and communities.”
