In April 2021 the company bought existing UK train operating company SLC Operations, subsequently renamed RailAdventure UK Ltd.[3] The company purchased eight Class 43 power cars from Angel Trains, six for dual-car operational use, and two for spare parts.[4][5][6] It has been involved in hauling the Class 777, Class 555 and Class 802 rolling stock to the Eurotunnel Calais Terminal on their delivery runs.[2]
