Case Study: BAM Nuttall restores Dawlish rail service with Peplink cellular bonding

BAM Nuttall restores Dawlish rail service in under 2 months with Peplink

The customer, BAM Nuttall, faced a national emergency when a storm destroyed a vital railway line in Dawlish, England. The challenge was to provide a robust, high-bandwidth network for the construction site in an extremely remote and weather-beaten location with no existing connectivity to support the urgent repair work. Vendor Peplink's products were selected to meet this need.

The solution implemented by Peplink used its cellular bonding technology to combine multiple SIM cards from different providers, creating an unbreakable connection. This provided the high bandwidth and resilience needed for large file transfers and secure access for all personnel. The project was completed successfully, with train service resuming ahead of the two-month deadline, preventing £35 million in further losses and demonstrating a clear, measurable impact.
