New DE-LU intermodal link

LKW WALTER, Stena Line, the Port of Kiel, and CFL multimodal have jointly launched a new kombi service that runs between Kiel's Schwedenkai terminal and the Intermodal Terminal Bettembourg-Dudelange.

710 m-long and 21-wagon-big trains run three times per week in both directions, taking on-board ro-ro cargo units and containers.

The parties want to shift up to 10k trucks/year from roads to rails thanks to putting in place the service. According to them, this will make it possible to cut CO2 emissions by some 11kt/year.
