Mossend Yard Emergency Response Vehicles.
With the closure of Motherwell TMD there is now no 75ton rail breakdown crane based in Scotland but cover for derailments is provided by two vehicles based at Mossend Yard in Lanarkshire. Both these vehicles are operated by DB Schenker but the Volvo still carries EWS markings and the DAF is still in its BR markings.
On the left is a Volvo FL6 17 ton truck fitted with SRS (Swedish Rail System) road-rail equipment. On the right is an ex BR owned DAF 45 crew and tool truck.
