The ÖBB Rail Cargo Group (RCG) is expanding its TransNET to include a multimodal connection to and from Serbia. The new TransFER directly links the economic centers of Western and Central Europe with the Western Balkans.
Rail Cargo Group now offers one round trip per week from Kruševac (Serbia), via the Hungarian terminal BILK (Budapest) to Duisburg (Germany) and vice versa. Kruševac is an important industrial center in the Western Balkans and plays a key role in regional rail freight transport. With its central location, the site offers ideal conditions for the transport of goods within Serbia and to the surrounding countries.
While Budapest acts as an important hub connecting the Western Balkans with the markets of Central Europe and ensures seamless onward connections to Western Europe through efficient transshipment options, Duisburg, one of the largest inland ports and logistics centres in Europe, acts as a gateway to the markets of Western Europe for international freight transport and offers onward connections for goods flows to the Benelux countries.
With the new TransFER, RCG offers a reliable transport solution on sustainable rail for the transport of 45-foot containers and swap bodies (WAB). All sectors are covered, including the beverage, chemical, building materials, steel and automotive industries as well as dangerous goods (RID). The fixed timetable ensures plannable and punctual transports at attractive delivery times.
In addition, all necessary additional freight forwarding services are offered. These include the organization of pre- and post-carriage, modern warehouse logistics and professional customs clearance to ensure smooth and safe transport. Additional services such as reloading, reporting and monitoring, positioning and utilization of equipment, backup solutions on the road and a central contact person for each customer round off RCG’s offering.
