DB Schenker Rail (UK) Ltd.
DB Schenker Rail UK was created in 1996 through a merger of several units of the former national monopoly, British Rail, which had been privatized. German rail transport and logistics giant Deutsche Bahn acquired the company in 2007 and integrated the company with its DB Schenker unit. DB Schenker Rail UK (formerly English Welsh & Scottish Railway) serves as the backbone of the UK's freight rail. Operating hundreds of trains daily, it hauls goods for businesses in the construction, energy, and manufacturing sectors. Besides offering coverage throughout its home country, the company provides service to continental Europe through the Channel Tunnel via a joint venture with French rail operator SNCF.
