Wilhelmshaven, 10.08.17 - Eurogate Container Terminal Wilhelmshaven has expanded its range of rail connections to the Rhine-Ruhr region. From now on, container trains will run once a week between Eurogate Container Terminal Wilhelmshaven and Container Terminal Dortmund.
The Rhine-Ruhr region is one of the most important economic centers in Germany with a high proportion of foreign trade. In addition to connections to the Europe-wide rail network, the Port of Dortmund is also linked to all major German and European inland ports via the canal network. duisport had already established a weekly connection between Wilhelmshaven and the Port of Duisburg in April. Since April 2017, the rail service at the container port of Wilhelmshaven has been massively expanded. Up to 25 container trains a week are now handled at the Rail Terminal Wilhelmshaven.
Container Terminal Dortmund operates two terminals for combined cargo transportation in Dortmund. The facility was only put into operation at the beginning of 2016 and has four tracks, each 724 meters long. The container trains depart once a week on Wednesdays (5.00 a.m.) from Dortmund and Thursdays (2.30 a.m.) from Wilhelmshaven. The trains each have a loading capacity of 100 standard containers (TEU).
