Product Information

In 2013, Drax unveiled the UK’s first purpose-built biomass rail freight wagon at the National Railway Museum in York. Developed by designers at Lloyd’s Register Rail and manufactured by WH Davis, it is the largest ever produced and pushes the boundaries of rail engineering.

This award-winning wagon transports sustainable biomass from the Ports of Tyne, Hull, and Immingham to Drax Power Station, near Selby for use in generating low carbon, cost effective, and reliable renewable electricity.

At 18.9m long with top doors stretching 18.2m and bottom doors of 3.7m, the supersize wagon has a capacity of 116 cubic metres allowing a biomass load weighing 71.6 tonnes. Its volume is almost 30 per cent bigger than any freight wagon currently used in the UK.

The Drax biomass wagon pack consists of two bright blue Drax Northern Powerhouse liveried wagons with their respective running numbers, 83700698083-8 and 83700698158-8. R60177A contains two biomass wagons with different decals as decoration on the livery compared to this pack.
