The link offered by TFG Transfracht involves six weekly runs by the company's TFGeco trains that use green electricity only.

Cargo handling operations at Container Terminal Osnabrück are also 100% powered by green electricity.

"We are delighted to expand our range of shortland feeders with the Osnabrück connection and to meet the growing demand for climate-friendly transport solutions. By expanding rail transport, we are offering a genuine rail alternative to road. In this way, we are shifting another 30,000 TEUs from road to rail in the region and achieving a saving of up to 5,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year for our climate," Frank Gedat, Head of Regional Division North East, TFG Transfracht, highlighted.
