This is all good, but moving containers by rail in the UK involves huge sums being spent changing the road and rail infrastructure. Round here we recently had to suffer horrendous delays for over a year while Network Rail rebuilt several road overbridges to allow container trains under them. This followed a major road junction overhaul caused by a new T*sco superstore (don't ask). Needless to say a utility company then started digging up the road, followed by the council resurfacing the roads over the bridges! Can't say I noticed any council tax rebate when I got the bill the other day.....

Come to think of it, shouldn't China be paying? The containers are doubtless full of their knick knacks!
