New: TransFER Wels–Lübeck–Kiel

ÖBB Rail Cargo Group (RCG) is launching a new TransFER connection, linking Wels in Austria with the strategically important ports of Lübeck and Kiel in northern Germany.

The new TransFER operates four round trips per week between the logistics centre Wels and the Port of Lübeck – one of the largest Baltic Sea ports in Germany. While Wels, as a Central European logistics hub, enables the distribution of flows of goods in all directions within Europe, Lübeck is an important transhipment centre for rail freight to the Scandinavian and Baltic markets and beyond. As an extension of the logistics chain to Northern Europe, the TransFER will also operate three times a week to Kiel.

Reliable rail transport with full service

By using mixed trains, RCG focuses on flexibility – goods of all kinds can be transported in both conventional wagonloads and intermodal containers. The fixed timetable ensures reliability and predictability of transport operations. With the new TransFER connection, RCG not only offers a sustainable rail transport solution to the Baltic Sea port region. Comprehensive end-to-end logistics solutions are also part of the service portfolio: Organisation of the first and last mile as well as additional freight forwarding services such as terminal services, transhipment options, modern warehouse logistics and professional customs clearance – all from a single source.
