China-train reaches Europe in 32 days


Fifty feu containers carrying chemical, industrial and retail goods from Suzhou, China recently reached their destination terminal at Ludwigshafen, Germany after a journey of 32 days.

 

This is the first westbound block train to be organised by logistics service provider Dachser. It is designed to provide a reliable option to connect the two continents in the future. On its route from China to Europe, the train passes through Erenhot in Mongolia, Russia, Belarus and Poland.

 

When the train arrived Ludwigshafen in Germany, Dachser's branch in Mannheim immediately ensured, in cooperation with a local intermodal freight transport company, that the containers were diverted to Ludwigshafen am Rhein as well as to further cities in Germany such as Duisburg and Schwarzhede.

 

In partnership with the railway operator RTSB, Dachser can deploy the extra block train via Suzhou flexibly in accordance with demand.

 

Its team in China also coordinated with RTSB to handle all pre-carriage procedures including pick up, gate-to-terminal and customs clearance. (ben)
