PKP CARGO CONNECT and cargo-partner have teamed up to offer a new route that links Schavemaker's terminal in Kąty Wrocławskie (southwestern Poland) with Xi'an, Zhengzhou, Qingdao, Chongqing, and Chengdu.
The Polish company is testing a new connection that sources shipments from the Chinese Chengdu, Xi'an, Chongqing, and Zhengzhou to its terminal in Małaszewicze on Poland's border with Belarus.
The new link, suitable for semi-trailers (P400, frigo) and containers (incl. with dangerous goods), will connect Duisburg and Poznań from the beginning of June.
After carrying several test runs since November 2020, the container rail service, organised by Xuzhou-Europe Railway Express, has become regular, with two trips per month.
First Row Shipping and Logistics has put in place a 1,400 km-long round trip service that sees CFL Cargo Sweden-operated trains carrying up to 72 twenty-foot containers once per week between Piteå and Gothenburg.
