The CLH Group donates a tank wagon to the Mora la Nova Railway Museum

• This initiative falls within the scope of the company's Social Responsibility Policy

The CLH Group has donated a tank wagon to the Heritage Railway Museum of Mora la Nova (Tarragona), a body which is integrated into the Science and Technology Museum of Catalonia and is dedicated to the restoration and conservation of locomotives, cars, carriages and wagons from various historical periods.

The wagon was ordered by the company in 1957, when it operated under the CAMPSA brand, and has a capacity of 22,500 litres. Until the time of the transfer, it was in disuse, exposed in CLH's storage facility in Tarragona, because the company no longer transports oil products by rail, but through its network of pipelines.

The presentation ceremony was attended on behalf of the company by the director of the Tarragona facility, Irene Doñate, who congratulated the Railway Museum on "the excellent restoration work carried out" and expressed her satisfaction that the wagon would be "cared for by professionals and accessible to the public, as an example of the importance of trains to the development of the economy".

The event was also attended by other local authorities, such as the mayor of Móra la Nova, Francesc Moline; the president of APPFI (the Association for the Preservation of the Industrial Railway Heritage of Móra la Nova), Jordi Sasplugas; and the director of the Museum of Science and Technology of Catalonia, Jaume Pernau.

This donation has been made under the Corporate Social Responsibility Policy of the CLH Group, in the context of which the company is working with its main stakeholders and local communities to implement projects for the benefit of society with regard to social action, culture, education, protection of the environment and entrepreneurship support.
