Schweizerzug adds China to its network


On 1 April 2020 Schweizerzug will launch a container train between Switzerland and China. The new train links Frenkendorf near Basel and Niederglatt near Zurich (Switzerland) with Xian in Shaanxi province and Hefei Anhui province in China.

 

The door-to-door service will begin with one departure per week. Transit times from Switzerland will be 15 days to Xian and 18 days to Hefei. For the new link Schweizerzug will cooperate with its German partner RTSB, which focuses on transmodal railfreight between Europe and CIS, Mongolia and China.

 

Rialfreight traffic from Switzerland is handled at the German hub in Neuss. From there, the trains are operated by RTSB to their final destination. (ben)
