RAIL SERVICES IN EUROPE
DOOR-TO-DOOR. TERMINAL-TO-TERMINAL.
With our rail services, we offer reliable and frequent departures with scalable capacity and fast transit times. You benefit from more than 20 years of valuable experience in multimodal transportation, international knowledge, and a local presence.
In combination with multimodal transport modes (road, rail, inland waterway, or sea), our rail services move goods in a single loading unit without handling the goods themselves when changing modes. Essentially, it's a door-to-door transport chain where the cargo stays in the same unit from origin to destination, minimising handling and maximising efficiency.
OUR COVERAGE
Our vast network of owned company trains across Europe, combined with shuttle train services, secures capacities and scalability with reliable, yet flexible departures and fast transit times. We own a dedicated fleet of modern trailers and containers, equipped with state-of-the-art monitoring devices, allowing for synchronised, end-to-end operations in full control.
In total, we operate 56 single company trains (28 roundtrips) and 76 shuttle trains (38 roundtrips). It is the combination of our company trains and the open network that makes our offering complete.
Zeebrugge and Europoort serve as our North Sea hubs, with services designed for seamless onward vessel connectivity. Duisburg functions as our "Hub West" for intra-European services, serving as an alternative in addition to Zeebrugge and Europort.
