The liberalisation of the European railway markets and the resulting emergence of new competitive market structures between the various railway operators have created additional potential capacity. Under the product management of Rhenus Rail Logistics GmbH, we develop and implement rail logistics strategies in the following areas

• Rail forwarding
• Customised scheduled cargo traffic and global supply chain management
• Internal rolling stock (NIAG – Lower Rhine Transport Operator)

Cooperation and freight agreements with diverse European railway operators allow Rhenus Rail Logistics GmbH to offer not only the best logistical solution for each case but also very favourable prices thanks to the efficient combination of cargo. We operate individual wagons and block trains between all countries in Western and Eastern Europe. Whenever benefits can be achieved by combining different carriers (inland navigation, rail and road), rail transport is a reliable link in the intermodal transport chain. We maintain trimodal railports at various locations for this very purpose.

We handle for instance the haulage of sea imports and exports via our seaport terminals and also dispatch goods from third countries directly by rail to the CIS. This year we opened a new office in Malaszewicze, where the railway changes from Russian wide gauge to European standard gauge, to enable the monitored handling of goods being unloaded between wagons.

In response to enquiries regarding individual wagons or orders, we can proactively send you via our internet interfaces tracking and transport data, including not just a wagon's current location but also any delays anticipated.
