Fresh Spanish produce by rail
TESCO and Transfesa Logistics are working together to deliver fresh fruit and vegetables from Spain to the UK by rail.
Initially, 15 refrigerated loads per week are running from the Almussafes rail terminal in Valencia to DB Cargo’s Barking terminal.
The wagons pass through Transfesa’s gauge-changing facility at Cerbère, on the Spain/ France border, to change axles from Spanish 5ft 6in to standard gauge.
