There's a story doing the rounds, which has been verified to me by a driver of Freightliner Heavy Haul, that there was a big meeting at Drax Power Station recently. The bosses at Drax had managers from EWS, GBRF and FHH in to ask them a few questions.
Firstly they said to EWS "you had X amount of trains late arriving at Drax power station. Can you give the details why?" So EWS managers gave a detailed account of why each and every train was late. Some were due to EWS's own failures, some were due to Network Rail signal or track failures, and some were due to vandalism etc.
Drax then asked GBRF the same question, and GBRF managers came back with their own detailed analysis in the same way that EWS had.
Drax then asked FHH for their reasons why X amount of their trains were late. FHH answered that they couldn't actually give any reasons why any of their trains were late.
Drax managers then told the EWS and GBRF reps to leave the room. They then told FHH that they were very unhappy with their response and that they are issuing them with a final warning. If the same thing happens again, FHH will not be allowed to deliver coal to Drax anymore.
