Ipswich marshalling yard

It is proposed to construct three additional 24-wagon sidings within the existing Ipswich marshalling yard, running adjacent to Ranelagh Road. The works will involve alterations to the track layout of existing non-electrified sidings. This will increase the capacity of the Ipswich marshalling yard to accommodate additional freight trains, and will allow all trains to be up to 24 standard wagons in length, thereby improving the efficiency of services.
