Single-wagon transports in block train quality
DB Cargo has been shipping chemical products for the chemical group BASF in Germany and Europe for many years. Two years ago, the carrier introduced a special shuttle concept to connect the two plant sites in Ludwigshafen and Schwarzheide. BASF has now extended the contract for these services for a further two years.
In a sophisticated logistics solution, the trains do not simply transport chemical products between A and B but combine transport volumes that are not large and not suitable for block trains with additional single wagonloads. With this system, DB Cargo can offer single wagonload shipments in block train quality. (ben)
