No More Containers in East-West Trains to Rotterdam

In the last quarter of 2019, container transport via E-trains came to an end. The train carried coal (ore?) from EMO Rotterdam to the voestalpine steelworks in Linz and was partially loaded with containers on the return trip. These shipments are now handled via Hamburg. The containers are unloaded at Eurokombi and then transported to Hansaport for loading. The containers are unloaded from the Eurokombi and then transported to Hansaport for loading. Since June 2019, the ore for voestalpine in Linz has been handled almost entirely at the Port of Hamburg. This date also marked the near-complete end of ore shipments to and from Neuss and Rotterdam (only one train pair is believed to remain). To the best of my knowledge, container services in E-cars are currently limited to KT 47930 XALSH – AWHOS on Mon/Tue and KT 47932 XALSH – AM S on Thu/Fri.
