TransFER Wolfurt–Rotterdam to Include a Stop in Switzerland

Rail freight transport from Rotterdam (APMT II, ECT Delta, Wuppermann) to Wolfurt [AT]; 3 times a week since January 2018, with operational responsibility extending to Kufstein [DE] on behalf of Rail Cargo Operator – Austria GmbH; since October 16, 2018, also including a branch line to Moerdijk (Wuppermann)

Since May 8, on Fridays from Rotterdam

Railway Service Provider, LLC (EDG)

With a new route for our direct connection between Wolfurt and Rotterdam, we are now also connecting Frenkendorf in Switzerland to our intermodal network, thereby expanding our multimodal logistics services.

Wolfurt is not only of great importance to Vorarlberg’s strongly export-oriented economy. Austria’s westernmost terminal is a hub for the entire Lake Constance region—and, even more so, for all of Europe. The Wolfurt freight center, the starting point for high-frequency TransFER connections, provides direct transport links to the northern ports of Hamburg and Bremerhaven, as well as to the Dutch port of Rotterdam, one of Europe’s most important transportation hubs.

Effective immediately, we are now offering an additional stop in Frenkendorf, Switzerland, as part of our TransFER Wolfurt–Rotterdam service. Two round trips will operate as usual from Wolfurt via Kufstein to Rotterdam and back. We will also operate an additional round trip from Rotterdam via Frenkendorf to Wolfurt. Loading and unloading facilities are available in Frenkendorf. This allows us to transport cargo from Frenkendorf to Wolfurt, where we connect to our extensive freight transport network. This creates connections to the Adriatic ports of Koper and Trieste, as well as a direct link to intercontinental cargo flows to the bimodal Bilk Terminal, Hungary’s largest terminal in Budapest. The goal is to expand the TransFER Wolfurt–Rotterdam service to four routes with two stops in Frenkendorf.

LTE Brings Sugar to Switzerland

The LTE Group has begun transporting sugar from Poland to Switzerland on behalf of VTG Rail Logistics. From Basel onward, these services are operated under a license from Eisenbahndienstleister GmbH (EDG), whose new managing director, Markus Bertram, previously headed LTE Netherlands. In Poland, a third party provides the traction.

The cars are provided by VTG. They are part of a series of Uagnpps-type sugar cars that were primarily procured for the Südzucker Group’s operations. At the time, the railcar leasing company had procured four train sets at its own risk, which were initially used for Südzucker operations for two years.

Switzerland and China Now Connected

Starting April 1, 2020, Schweizerzug, in partnership with RTSB, will offer a fast and reliable alternative for shipments between Switzerland and China, as both air and ocean freight services are severely restricted and overloaded due to the coronavirus crisis. We offer weekly departures.

The new container train service on the Iron Silk Road serves Frenkendorf near Basel and Niederglatt near Zurich, and connects to Xi'an in Shaanxi Province and Hefei in Anhui Province. Additional destinations are accessible via these two industrial hubs.

BLS Cargo / Crossrail instead of LINEAS
