What you can’t see is costing you

Three blind spots in every freight operator’s view of their own performance.

~35% of delay minutes fall below reporting thresholds

Sub-threshold delays invisible

They accrue cost but never appear in any internal report. Across a portfolio of services, sub-threshold delays accumulate to approximately £28K per period in invisible Schedule 8 exposure — real money that nobody is tracking.

2+ weeks between delay event and settlement visibility

Two-week financial blind spot

FOCs discover their Schedule 8 exposure after four-weekly period settlement. That means managing a P&L line item you can’t see building. By the time the bill arrives, the period is closed and the decisions that could have changed the outcome are weeks in the past.

Zero tools exist for corridor-level freight monitoring

No corridor-level pattern detection

Which locations are costing you money? Does it correlate with possessions? Are delays clustering at the same points week after week? Location-level delay analysis, possession correlation, and trend detection — none of this exists in any operator’s current toolset.

Built for how freight thinks

The same operational data, framed for how each part of the industry actually works.

Freight Operating Companies

“Know your Schedule 8 exposure before the bill arrives”

Your Felixstowe services are losing minutes at Ipswich every week. Some fall below reporting thresholds. All of them cost money. We translate delay into estimated financial exposure using published CP7 Schedule 8 rates — so you can see what’s building before settlement close, not after.

  • Delay-to-£ estimation using published Schedule 8 payment rates
  • Sub-threshold delay accumulation tracking
  • Location-level delay clustering across your services
  • Possession impact scoring for forward planning

Ports & Terminals

“See upstream delays before they hit your gates”

Your yard plan is based on the timetable. Reality diverges between Colchester and Ipswich. We show you where inbound punctuality decays, which operators are running reliably into your port, and what upcoming possessions will do to your arrivals — based on what happened the last three times.

  • Inbound service reliability by operator
  • Upstream punctuality decay curves
  • Possession impact forecasting on inbound services
  • Operator comparison across all inbound services

Transport Planning Bodies

“Independent freight data for investment cases”

Infrastructure investment decisions need independent evidence, not Network Rail’s own performance data used to justify spend on Network Rail’s infrastructure. We provide corridor-level freight performance trends over time — independent, auditable, and built on 13+ months of continuous NROD data.

  • Route throughput and reliability trends over time
  • Independent performance evidence for investment cases
  • All-operator corridor benchmarking
  • Infrastructure bottleneck identification

The only platform built exclusively for UK rail freight financial performance

No provider currently offers UK ports or inland terminals ongoing rail performance analytics. The market has gaps, not competitors. We built the platform that fills them.

Every TRUST movement on the national network is processed, validated, and stored. The data pipeline has been running continuously since February 2025 — through every possession, every timetable change, every period boundary. That depth of continuous freight performance data does not exist anywhere else outside Network Rail.

Live NROD Processing

Live

Single-consumer NROD architecture processing every TRUST movement nationally. Real-time parsing, validation, and storage. Over 170 million movements processed and growing — the foundation everything else is built on.

Schedule 8 Translation

Derived

Delay minutes converted to estimated financial exposure using published CP7 payment rates — £25.81/min (NR-to-FOC) and £51.98/min (FOC-to-NR). Know the cost of disruption as it happens, not weeks after settlement.

Corridor Performance Analytics

Derived

A2F punctuality, delay reason analysis, and financial corridor analytics. Location-level delay attribution shows exactly where minutes are lost. Period-over-period trending reveals whether performance is improving or deteriorating — and by how much.

Possession Impact Scoring

Derived

Upcoming engineering works assessed for freight service impact using historical possession patterns. When Network Rail announces a Haughley Junction possession, we can estimate the additional Schedule 8 exposure based on what happened the last three times — before it hits your operation.

See what your corridor costs you

We’ll show you your freight performance for the last 28 days — your services, your delays, your financial exposure. No pitch deck, no demo environment. Your actual data, from the live national feed.
