The TransFER Salzburg–Augsburg–Ulm now operates with three round trips per week instead of two, one of which has been extended to Ulm. This expansion strengthens the link between Southern Germany and RCG’s international TransNET, while improving conventional single wagonload services for customers in various industries. It not only facilitates the flow of goods between the two regions, but also strengthens supply chains of numerous companies in Central and South-Eastern Europe. Dangerous goods in accordance with RID can also be transported. RCG offers efficient end-to-end logistics solutions – from transshipment and state-of-the-art warehousing to professional customs clearance.
Direct connection from Salzburg via Augsburg to Ulm
Rail-based antenna connections bring goods from all over Austria to Salzburg, where the TransFER is assembled. The main leg then continues to Augsburg and Ulm – with a continuous connection in the reverse direction back to Salzburg. In Ulm, goods can either be delivered directly to customers via their own sidings, or – if no rail access is available – via the nearby transshipment hub in Ummendorf for collection and delivery.
Transshipment hub Ummendorf: Efficient handling and flexible distribution
The hub in Ummendorf is ideally equipped for the transshipment between rail and road. A wide variety of goods – with the exception of containers and round timber – are handled efficiently on approximately 2,000 metres of track. Handling takes place both under cover and in open areas. Specialised handling is available for products such as paper rolls, heavy plate and coils. Storage is provided in an area of around 5,000 square metres. Road transport is available for the first and last mile to ensure seamless delivery and collection to and from end customers. This creates a highly flexible and tailor-made solution: while customers with their own siding can be supplied directly via Ulm, the Ummendorf hub handles distribution for companies without a direct rail connection.
