They are certainly very efficient at taking work off other rail companies, or at least they were. Now the boots on the other foot in a lot of places because GBRf are taking work off them. EWS are also recovering some work that they lost to them, and I believe that heavy Haul wouldn't have been half as successful if they hadn't relied on EWS doing the majority of the groundwork in locations so their trains could run there. and also the fact that EWS groundstaff assist with them preparing their trains.
