Four more rail connections to Duisburg
Samskip has added four new routes to the network of rail connections to its Duisburg rail terminal in Germany. The expansion principally targets importers and exporters in Denmark, France and Italy. Separate new rail services connect Duisburg to Padborg (Denmark), Macon (France), Padua (Italy) and Verona (Italy).
At a time of increasing driver shortages in Europe’s road haulage sector, the new routes provide reliable, efficient and sustainable rail service capacities along four major European routes, each with links to Duisburg, Samskip said.
Handling up to 250,000 units loads per year, the Duisburg terminal features eight 720 m length tracks for transhipment and two more for shunting. (ben)
