No more locomotive change at the border in Hodos
The Slovenian company Primol-Rail, part of PKP Cargo International, recently dispatched the first two container trains through the modernised crossing in Hodos, between Slovenia and Hungary, using its own multisystem Vectron locomotives.
The modernised track now allows the passing of trains with loads of 22.5 t per axle, compared to 20 t per axle in the past.
The group can now fully utilise the potential of the Vectron locomotives acquired last year, as the upgrade enables it to run freight trains to and from Slovenia and Italy without having to change the locomotive on the Hungarian-Slovenian border. (ben)http://www.pkpcargointernational.com
