I Race a TRAIN for 80 Miles in my TRUCK, to Prove a Point!

We load a Tipper Truck and a Train with 19 wagons to their capacity in the Aggregate Industries Isle of Grain distribution site and race back to the Ashville yard in West Drayton to offload.

Clearly, this is not a Drag Race and is not just about speed. The 80 mile race goes through the night and ends in the early hours of the morning.
