High Level Radioactive Waste Trains<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Highly Radioactive waste flasks containing used atomic fuel rods are regularly transported on trains through this station.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These waste trains are operated by DRS [ Direct Rail Services ].<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They pass through this station on the way to Sellafield on the West Cumbrian coast, via the DRS depots at Crewe or Carlisle.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These used fuel rods come from various atomic reactors across the UK.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They are transported through population centres including Barrow, Bristol, Chester, Edinburgh, Lancaster, London, Preston, Runcorn, Stafford, Warrington and Wigan.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These Waste Train Cargoes are highly dangerous.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They are the most dangerous cargoes carried on our railways.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They continuously emit low-level-radiation, and any increase in radiation means an increased risk of various cancers.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As a result of a serious accident or terrorist attack these flasks could break open, releasing highly-radioactive material that would blow for miles in the wind and could kill many people in the immediate area.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What you can do.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– Let others know about these radioactive waste trains.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

– Support the campaign to stop more Atomic Power Stations being built at Wylfa, Hinkley, or Moorside. and thus stop more radioactive waste from being created.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
