Company

There is a story behind every ÖBB freight train. That story is written by a strong team. We are the Rail Cargo Group – Europe's leading rail logistics provider and the sustainable logistical backbone of the economy.

From planning to invoicing, from the first mile to the last, from door to door: we manage the entire logistics chain – with our own terminals, carrier companies across Europe, employees in 18 countries, a fleet of thousands of freight wagons, more than 1,000 freight trains running every day and – most importantly – decades of expertise.

Our promise: “Your Cargo. Our Logistics Solutions”

Just transport? By no means! Our services go far beyond rail transport alone. From first and last mile, handling and storage to customs clearance – we deliver the whole package. Our TransNET not only provides the basis for this, but also offers unlimited possibilities: single wagonloads, wagon groups, block trains, containers or trucks on the Rolling Road – everything can be done and combined with our numerous TransFER connections.

Multimodal at the core

The railway is our main player, but no one conquers big stages alone. That’s why, as a multimodal logistics provider, we also integrate other modes of transport and combine their strengths to create efficient logistics solutions – whether by water, road or air. The railway forms the foundation of our work, as it is and remains the most sustainable mode of transport on the market: one tonne transported by rail saves 30 times more CO₂ than by road. This means that rail freight reduces the environmental burden by several million tonnes of CO2 every year and makes an indispensable contribution to climate protection.

We are RAILCORE

We are convinced that the logistics of the future of logistics lies with rail. That’s why we work passionately every day to shift even more goods to sustainable rail transport. Digitalisation and innovation are paving the way for a higher modal share. This enables us not only to create easy access to the rail system, but also to actively shape the future of rail freight. At the same time, we are fulfilling our vision of being the sustainable logistical backbone of the European economy – for a Europe worth living in.
