Greenbrier have awarded Axiom Rail Freight, part of Wabtec UK, a major contract for the supply and manufacture of its TF25 bogies.
The £8.2m deal provides bogies to Greenbrier Europe in Romania, for two 102T Box Wagon projects which will be operated in the UK upon completion in 2022.
This will also mark the 25th anniversary since the introduction and initial testing of the TF25 bogie, a bogie which has become class leading and the bogie of choice for many customers.
Nearly 4000 wagons in the UK have the TF25 fitted to them whether it is a box, hopper or tank wagon.
Greenbrier have been a huge advocate of the TF25 bogie and other products within Axiom Rail Freights portfolio, having built over 2,800 wagons for the UK market that utilise the TF25.
Jonathan Lowden comments: “Working with Greenbrier for over 20 years has been a pleasure, Axiom Rail Freight appreciates the continued collaboration and the joint effort to introduce innovative wagons into the UK market, long may the relationship continue”.
