Deliver our diesel but only by road, says ScotRail [Scotsman]





Date: 23/02/2012

SCOTLAND’S main train operator is seeking a new supplier to deliver 48 million litres of diesel a year by road. The £31 million ScotRail contract, involving some 1,500 tanker movements, comes despite ministers urging further reductions in the environmental impact of railways. It also contrasts starkly with Prestwick Scotland’s fourth largest airport which gets all its 70m litres of fuel a year by rail from the Grangemouth refinery.
