Cargo Beamer extends railcar fleet
The French investor Flexam will finance 40 railcars. Some of these wagons are part of the first batch to roll off the assembly line of the Erfurt (Germany) plant, which Cargo Beamer opened in 2022. The patented railcars are now being deployed in day-to-day operations on its railway network of intermodal routes, notably in France between Calais and Perpignan.
Cargo Beamer railcars are designed for the intermodal transport of semi-trailers and various loading units. They enable the horizontal, parallel, and automated loading and unloading of units inside a Cargo Beamer terminal. The technology reduces carbon emissions by 85% compared to road transport. (ben)
