TRAINS Fast connections without unnecessary stopovers With ‘normal’ goods traffic by rail, however, every stopover and switching activity costs time and money (personnel costs, rental costs, etc.). The direct block train combines the benefits of both. One need no longer choose between fast and expensive or slow and cheap; instead, assembling a train produces direct, secure and low-cost transportation. In a similar way to a car pool, we bundle individual wagon consignments of a wide range of product groups on block trains, guaranteeing fast, direct and cost-effective handling between strategic international hub railway stations as a result. This lets us avoid cost- and time-intensive switching services at various stations, even for clients transporting single wagons, and use the full benefits of the block train. You do not only merely achieve price benefits and shorter journey times, however. Security also increases due to the reduced stopovers: the risk of theft falls significantly, and the damage to goods that can happen as a result of switching ceases to be an issue. Delivery dates can also be defined more precisely in advance, since the majority of our trains are managed on permanent location routes. Finally, continuous monitoring ensures that the precise position of each individual wagon is known at all times. Don’t just listen to us, however: convince yourself of the benefits of our block train system. We provide the following services on all our lines:
