Intermodal network continues to grow
Kombiverkehr has initiated a new direct train in partnership with forwarder Spedition Bode. The train connects Lübeck in Germany with Halmstad in southern Sweden.
Starting point and destination is the Port of Halland logistics centre in Halmstad, while the Lehmann Terminal in Dänischburg near Lübeck serves as a shipping and receiving terminal for trailers, swap bodies and containers. From there, Kombiverkehr offers onward transports to a variety of destinations in Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and Czechia via the mega hub Hannover Lehrte.
The trains are hauled by DB Cargo Scandinavia and reach their destinations in less than 12 hours via the fixed link. The new service will operate one round trip per week with immediate effect, with a second round trip to be added in the middle 2022. (ben)
