A DONEGAL company has secured a multi-million pound contract to renew platforms as well as track, signalling and overhead line equipment at London’s King’s Cross Station.
Pod-Trak, who specialise in the construction and maintenance of transport infrastructure, was founded by Paul O’Donnell in 2007.
It’s a company that saw an opportunity, grasped it and has gone on to do incredibly well.

Today, the company, which is headquartered in Perivale, West London with offices in Bristol, Manchester, Doncaster and Letterkenny, employs over 300 people across the UK and Ireland.
This week, Paul (38) spoke to The Donegal News from his home in Harrow, north London, about the company’s journey so far.
Donegal man leading Christmas toy appeal in Britain
A DONEGAL man is asking companies across Britain to donate towards a Christmas toy appeal to ensure as many children as possible will wake up to a gift this Friday.
Pod-Trak, which has bases in London, Manchester and in Letterkenny, is calling for members of the public to donate toys to either of their British locations – or cash that can be used to buy toys – to help ensure the children of the most vulnerable families will receive a gift this Christmas.
The initiative is the brainchild of Pod-Trak’s Operations Director for the North, Stephen Given, originally from Ardara who is based in the Manchester office.
