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.
