It is estimated that delivering the 2040 growth target will increase the value of goods moved by rail freight from ?33.7 billion to ?49.5 billion. It is also estimated that meeting the target would save a million tonnes of CO2 per year compared with freight moved by road.

Gentleman and Wrightbus on that.
