The new concept of this shuttle connection will start with 3 roundtrips per week of each around 100 TEU per train connecting Duisburg overnight with KTL Ludwigshafen and Frankfurt Industriepark Höchst. Southbound the departure days will be Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Northbound will be Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
In Duisburg, as biggest inland hub of Europe, this renewed service calls at the Duisburg Intermodal Terminal GmbH (DIT). Via the DIT terminal a daily train departs to the ports of Rotterdam and Antwerp. In Rotterdam the train will call at all maritime terminals on the Maasvlakte area as the RSC Waalhaven for all continental and short-sea volumes and stops at certain short-sea terminals are planned for January 2015 for instance the Cobelfret terminal. To Antwerp a daily departure to and from Quai 1700 can be offered and on-carriage to other terminals.
