The 200th Drax biomass wagon has been delivered, two years since the first entered service.
Designed by Lloyds Register Rail – now Ricardo Rail – and manufactured by WH Davis, the wagons are 30 per cent larger than anything else operating in the UK.
Since going into service, the wagons have travelled more than 12 million miles between the Ports of Tyne, Hull and Immingham and Drax, and have transported around 4.5 million tonnes of sustainable biomass.
Drax has described its switch to biomass as the largest decarbonisation project in Europe.
Mark Jackson, managing director of WH Davis, said: “We’re proud of what we’ve achieved for Drax, providing UK-manufactured wagons which set the standard for wagon manufacture and enable Drax to receive volumes of biomass which would be impracticable by road.”
The wagons are maintained by Davis Wagon Services, a subsidiary of WH Davis.
