This new traffic does not use the proposed CMAT terminal in Tilbury2 which is not completed and construction appears to have been halted/paused. The accompanying photos show the aggregates being loaded on to the train at the former Freightliner Container site within the main Tilbury Docks, not in the new terminal.
