Rail Industry Connected | Innovation & Commercialisation as an SME with Martin Whitbread, Orange Train Wash

On last week’s episode, we spoke to BCIMO about some of the challenges that businesses have to overcome to commercialise innovations that will significantly benefit the railways.

This week, we speak to a business that aims to revolutionise the train cleaning process by saving a staggering 98% of water and cleaning one carriage every 30 seconds. Orange Train Wash, which has developed an innovative and adaptable solution for train cleaning operations, has priced itself at an average of 78% cheaper than other cleaning solutions, with significant sustainability benefits.

Today, we speak to Martin Whitbread, the Founder and Designer of Orange Train Wash, to learn about the story so far, and how Orange Train Wash is set to take train washing operations to a new level.
