Mainline Freight blue livery as carried by Class 37 no. 37047 (seen with 37109) at Cheltenham Spa on 18 September 2004.

Mainline Freight was a trainload railfreight operator based in South-East England. It was formed in 1994 prior to the privatisation of British Rail.

The company introduced a livery of 'aircraft blue' with a silver bodyside stripe, and "rolling wheels" logo with Mainline branding.

Mainline Freight, Load-Haul and Trans-Rail were purchased by a consortium led by Wisconsin Central in 1996 and amalgamated to form EWS, later renamed DB Schenker Rail (UK).

Mainlines Fleet consisted of Class 08,09,31,33,37,47,56,58 & 60 locomotives based at Toton, Stratford, Hither Green, Stewarts Lane and Eastleigh depots
