RUSSELL RAIL OVERVIEW

  • The Russell Group have been pioneering the use of rail freight as a sustainable transport method since

the 1970s.

  • Currently operating multiple rail linked sites, the Russell Group has a wealth of experience in both rail

and multimodal logistic solutions

  • Many manufacturers and retailers have started developing their use of rail freight throughout the UK

due to the numerous environmental benefits and HGV driver shortage issues.

rail and is committed to supporting the use of rail in the future.
