Starting February 7, TX Logistik AG and European Gateway Services will increase the directly connection by rail between Rotterdam and Southern Germany. The frequency of the Rotterdam- Bayern Express will be increased from five to six departures a week in both directions.
The Rotterdam-Bayern Express can accommodate both maritime and continental cargo. In Rotterdam, the train serves all major container terminals at both the Maasvlakte and in the Maashaven/Waalhaven area. In Southern Germany, the service calls at respectively the Tricon Container Terminal in Nuremberg and the inland terminal München Riem in Munich.
European Gateway Services and TX Logistik also offer pre-transport and post-transport services at both locations. Cargo which departs Rotterdam by train on day 1 is available on the South German terminals on day 2 and already at the doorstep of customers anywhere in Southern Germany and the north-west of Austria on day 3. In the other direction, a similar transit time applies to the connection with the deepsea ship.
“The Rotterdam-Bayern Express constitutes a fully-fledged alternative for the traditional route from and to Bayern via the North German ports,” Mark van Andel, director of European Gateway Services said.
