A 97 tonne aircraft on single axle bogies ? I think the 757's range will be mostly there, but not so much its runway performance...... unless they add a main center gear (with brakes), a la 340.....

We used the 757 Trans-Atlantic from places like Newcastle, Cardiff and Exceter. Never did carry any cargo on these flights though.
