ÖBB Rail Cargo Group offers alternative after closed Gotthard Tunnel: TransFER Verona-Wuppertal
Due to the recent closures in the Gotthard Tunnel and on the Brenner route, ÖBB Rail Cargo Group (RCG) offers an alternative option for freight traffic between Italy and Germany with its new TransFER Verona-Wuppertal. International freight traffic is currently significantly impaired on this axis. The Brenner route has been reopened for freight trains after a complete closure in August, but there are still restrictions in the Gotthard Tunnel. On the north-south link through the Swiss Alps, cleanup work is continuing following the derailment of a freight train.
