Significant events
- “During 2023 the business launched a transformation program to target improvement in profit and modernise the company; this program has continued throughout 2024 and will continue through 2025.”
- “The company has a strong focus on the environment and, during 2023, continued discussions with customers on the use of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (HVO) to fuel trains as an alternative to diesel. This has resulted in one major customer having transitioned all freight to HVO in 2024 and discussions ongoing with several other customers for similar transitions.”
- “A project regarding a proposed pensionable pay freeze for employees in the RPS began in 2023 involving a negotiation process with the company's recognised Trade Unions. The proposed pensionable pay freeze for six years from 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2030 was implemented contractually during March 2024.”
- “During 2023 and 2024, a handful of non-strategic sites were sold. Other sites have been enhanced and/or expanded to consolidate the activity from these sites.”
- “The directors also intend to liquidate certain Group companies as part of the wider group reorganisation, before the end of 2025. The trade, assets and liabilities of the companies will be transferred to DB Cargo (UK) Limited prior to liquidation. The reorganisation is driven by a desire to streamline internal processes and drive efficiencies to support the wider transformation of the UK business.”
