The new technology pioneered by Interflon UK Ltd which has been developed with Network Rail will speed up the production rate for lubricating the railways 3000+ fishplates.
The innovation means that only 1 member is required to carry out the maintenance with another in a support vehicle as opposed to the traditional 4-6 members of P-Way and 2-3 Traincrew to facilitate the maintenance trains.
The railway is currently focusing on the Dereham-Wymondham Permanent Way section which is anticipated will only take two weeks. A massive improvement for the members working environment as the physical endurance is expected to be much less.
