Austria’s Rail Cargo Group (RCG) is launching a new direct connection between Duisburg and Antwerp. Round trips will take place twice a week and are available for both wagonloads and containers.
The total transit time of the new connection is 7,5 hours, says the ÖBB subsidiary. “In addition to transport, RCG also offers comprehensive end-to-end logistics solutions. These include the organisation of the first and last mile, handling options, modern warehouse logistics and professional customs clearance.” Dangerous goods can also be transported on the route.
RCG specifies that Duisburg and Antwerp are important rail logistics hubs, and by connecting them, the rail operator “offers seamless transport to and from Scandinavia, Germany, Austria, Italy and the entire Southern and Southeastern European region.” The company has connections from Duisburg that further extend into other regions of Europe.
