Panda Sprinter links Brake and Chongqing
2021-01-26
DB Cargo and J. Müller, a Port of Brake-based stevedore specialising among many in handling forest products, have tested the carriage of wood pulp by rail from Germany to China.
The trial Panda Sprinter train saw 1,000t of pulp brought from the Port of Brake to Chongqing in a journey that took 18 days.
DB Cargo and J. Müller want to get other industries involved in the Panda Sprinter project in order to secure enough freight volume to turn the service into a regular one.
