Britain’s specialist rail freight operator, Nuclear Transport Solutions (NTS), has secured government funding to lead on the development of a new transport package which will support a new generation of nuclear reactors. The carrier is already the only operator certified to move nuclear materials around the UK by rail. Now, the company’s engineers are drawing on those years of experience to design the new transport package for the innovative form of fuel, which will be used in new nuclear developments including Small Modular Reactors (SMR).
