Market-ready system to support road-to-rail shift


Germany’s federal government has earmarked EUR 15 million to help Helrom launch its new trailer wagon on the market. Helrom uses a market-ready, worldwide patented trailer wagon technology which enables to transport all kinds of truck trailers by rail quickly and without loading terminals.

 

The Helrom trailer wagon represents a real breakthrough for shifting freight traffic to rail. It can make a decisive contribution towards reducing CO2 emissions in transport and therefore achieving German and European climate goals.

 

According to Helrom, road traffic is responsible for 20% of all CO2 emissions. About 74% of all road freight is carried in truck trailers. But to date, only 2% of truck trailers are transported by rail. (ben)
