Our Mission

We’re changing the way that you access Rail Freight

About eco2loco

Working with UK authorities and partners to deliver increased volume and capacity, providing a cleaner and green transport alternative to HGVs, under a simple commercial structure.

Our mission is to streamline your supply chain, sustainably. We are leading the industry forward through the green agenda, working with our partners to move goods all around the world, whilst reducing their carbon footprint.

We’re working to develop a non-propriety digital solution to meet the growing demand for sustainable, reliable logistics, compliant with HMRC customs requirements.

Our Journey
The UK rail network has the capacity to move an additional 150,000 containers per year
This represents an annual freight value in excess of £2 billion per year
This would save the UK 40 million tonnes of CO2 emissions per year
