    Freightliner is disappointed at the decision to scrap Phase 2 of HS2. Rail remains the most sustainable means of moving freight around the UK, with each freight train removing up to 129 HGVs from busy roads and in doing so reducing carbon emissions by 76%. (1/3)

    Freightliner was delighted to make 6yr old Reuben Stirling’s day by arranging for him to witness the longest freight train he’s ever seen. It comes as no surprise that Reuben wants to be a Freightliner train driver when he grows up! #railfreight #futuretraindriver

    Increasing our electric fleet ⚡ Switching to electric traction over diesel boosts the benefits of rail even more - cutting carbon emissions by over 90% compared to road haulage - that's why we have increased our fleet of electric locomotives to 25. #Freightliner
