“UK: The first demonstration rail freight service carrying textiles and other consumer goods from China to the UK arrived at the London Eurohub terminal in Barking just after 13.00 on January 18, having left Yiwu Xi station in eastern China’s Zhejiang province on January 1.”

Thanks for the link to us! Hope you’re looking at our other (urban transport) site too.
Barking freight has former Ford sidings, HS1, and proximity to London.
Then what happens ? If it’s Continental Gauge it can’t go any further so do they trans-ship containers?
Seems like a congested area to introduce additional freight unless it’s all destined for London by road.
