Rail FCL

Rail transportation is a feasible alternative to sea or airfreight.

For full container loads (FCL), there are two main routes for freight trains, with a number of sub-routes. The southern route through Kazakhstan and southern Russia is the most suitable for freight to and from south and central China, for example the regions surrounding Chengdu, Chongqing and Zhengzhou. The northern route through Siberia is ideal for container transport for the northern regions around Beijing, Changchun, Dalian and Shenyang. In Europe the most important terminals are Małaszewicze and Warsaw in Poland, Duisburg and Hamburg in Germany.

Our FCL rail services with weekly departures from China to Europe covers various main terminals across the whole China:

Changchun	Chongqing	Shenyang	Wuhan	Yiwu
Changsha	Ganzhou	Shenzhen	Xiamen	Zhengzhou
