US intermodal freight company RailRunner launched its first services in Europe on July 31 with the start of a daily flow between Bratislava and Braunschweig.
Transnet signed a 20-year contract with RailRunner to haul lorry trailers on its 1400km Capecor corridor in 2016, with the aim of delivering a dramatic uplift in rail freight traffic, as Paul Ash explains.
IN a move that could have long-term ramifications for South Africa's long-haul trucking industry, Transnet has signed a deal with RailRunner, United States to develop intermodal technology for the country's general freight business.
