New service to promote rail

Freight
FTA is seeking to promote the use of rail freight to companies that have not previously considered it through a new service – FTA FastTrack.
To launch it this new rail freight assessment service is being offered free to companies. It will provide them with impartial advice to assess the potential benefits of rail and whether to explore the service further. FastTrack aims to provide logistics buyers with access to a range of information on rail freight. Through one simple form the potential user will provide information on type of freight, number and volume of shipments and origin and destination points. FastTrack would provide an assessment of feasibility, cost and environmental benefit.
