The Rail/Road Dumper
Embedded Files
Capable of both rail and road travel and with its own trailer, this unit is used by the permanent way teams and was trialled in August 2022 following a service train as a follow-up fire train during a particularly dry spell when frequent lineside fires were an issue.
Details:
