Nearly every train station in the UK has been visited by an Engineius driver!
There are 2597 train stations located across the UK and Engineius‘ drivers have visited 2426 of them whilst travelling the UK collecting and delivering vehicles. That’s 93%, which really highlights the breadth covered by the drivers.
Engineius has the greenest credentials in vehicle movement and doesn’t use chaser vehicles. This outdated practice vastly increases emissions and adds unnecessary miles, so their network of over 600 drivers and transport agents uses public transport to travel between locations where there isn’t a suitable job to link together.
Research showed that when a chaser vehicle is deployed, 24 miles are driven for every 10 miles needed. By linking jobs and using public transport, Engineius saved customers 2,538,488 tons of CO2 in 2025, which is a huge win in the road to net zero.
Many of the Engineius drivers love travelling by train, and from his Trainpal stats, Gareth came top of the leaderboard in 2025, having visited 408 train stations across the country!
Gareth worked in supermarket retail for 15 years but enjoys driving and joined Engineius’ driver network in 2023. He uses Trainpal to source the best priced fares.
When asked which was his favourite railway station from those he had visited,
Gareth replied: “I’m Yorkshire born and bred. I lived in Halifax until recently and now live just outside Grantham. I think everyone has a connection with the station in their hometown and therefore that is most people’s favourite. However, as I have moved recently, I have realised that it is a favourite for no other reason than it signals getting home!”
Gareth continued: “I find York station to be laid out in a logical way without too many platforms, and I would say that the Victorian station at Ribblehead to be the most unusual station I’ve passed through as it is a station for walkers rather than a station in a city or town.”
Ribblehead is In the heart of the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park with the impressive Ribblehead Viaduct. With 24 spans, it carries the Settle–Carlisle railway across the valley lying over 100 feet (32 m) below.
Gareth uses his train journeys to check the Engineius portal for other vehicle movements he could fulfil and then likes to relax listening to a podcast or audio book or watch a film on a longer trip.
