High-performance shuttle services
The Northwest route provides a fast connection to and from the major seaports of Rotterdam in the Netherlands and Antwerp in Belgium. Its link to Calais also provides access to Great Britain. This applies whether customers use block-train or single wagonload services, as the Dutch Kijfhoek marshalling yard serves as an ideally located hub for these transports.
High-performance services within the Northwest network, such as the Zeebrugge Shuttle and Antwerp Shuttle, together with connections to Cologne-Gremberg and the Ruhr region, also provide access to important destinations and marshalling yards for onward transport, for example to Italy.
Local expertise meets a global offering
In this network, global reach is combined with the local expertise of service advisers who provide practical support for the required route. This also applies to individual requests: the broad product portfolio enables customer-specific solutions, complemented by additional services such as loading advice and support with customs matters
