The ORR has just published new report on train emissions
For the first time, there are splits by Operator, and tables for electric and diesel trains
Also tables for freight operators emissions
Some highlights (or low rather than high)
Figure 2.1 Lumo is best with 7 grammes/km, TfW is 13 times worse at 92g/km
cross country with its voyager (and 170) fleet is second worse
Figure 2.3 there were 10 operators that increased diesel emissions per vehicle kilometre
Comparing table 2.2 electric vs table 2.3 diesel, shows many operators diesel trains emissions are about 4 times worse, which rather shows lack of respect about environmental issues and climate change when using diesels on electrified sections
