Freight wagons wanted - on loan
In Ukraine, millions of tonnes of grain are waiting for transport. Freight wagons will be urgently required for this purpose in the coming weeks. In its newsletter, the Swiss Association of Shippers (VAP) is therefore calling for free rolling stock to be made available for Ukraine.
Suitable rolling stock (older or decommissioned wagons, from existing production) can be handed over for a few weeks or even up to two years.
On a matchmaking platform, the EU will soon provide information on where the exchange will take place. Information on issues such as insurance, coordination of wagon transfers and details on the procedure will follow in the days to come. (ben)
