LKW WALTER, Stena Line, Port of Kiel and CFL multimodal successfully concluded a partnership agreement to expand their service offering. This new intermodal connection was initiated at the Intermodal terminal of Bettembourg-Dudelange on Jaunary 21 and will be running with three roundtrips per week for cranable trailers and containers.
According to the consortium partners they are convinced that a regular intermodal service, connecting the Luxembourg area as well as existing trains (Lyon, Le Boulou and Barcelona) to the Port of Kiel and its ferry lines to Göteborg will boost the development of global European intermodal solutions.
This new train will foster modal shift, allowing the transfer from road to rail of up to 10.000 trucks and CO2 savings of about 11.000t per year.
