Freight forwarding using rail freight transport from London to mainland Europe
Freight forwarding using rail freight transport from London to mainland Europe Welcome to Freight Europe (UK) Ltd Rail freight transport has come a long way from loading wagons or containers onto cross-Channel ferries. Until recently, this was the only way to transport wagons from the UK into mainland Europe. Emerging from Folkestone and Calais was the ‘Channel Tunnel’. After nearly two centuries of test bores, May 1994 saw the tunnels completed and the dawn of a revolution in freight forwarding and rail freight transport. Two years later, we became part of this revolution. With reduced turnaround times, wagons hauled by Freight Europe began using the Channel Tunnel. Our company offers freight forwarding services using rail freight transport. From anywhere in the UK with a rail freight terminal, we can arrange transport and delivery to your final destination via the Channel Tunnel. If you already have a rail operator, we also offer wagon hire contracts. Each of our freight forwarding services in London includes tracking services from loading point to final destination. These are through the SNCF EDIFRET and the UK’s TOPS tracking systems, plus a network of partners in mainland Europe on permanent way outside SNCF and Network Rail metals. Our offices in London are close to the dawn of a second revolution, the Channel Tunnel Rail Link from St. Pancras, on the other side of the River Thames. part of Fret International (a wholly owned subsidiary of SNCF), we have the expertise and knowledge of Trans-European rail freight transport, with (2006 figures) over 50% of traffic being international. Rail freight transport in London makes more sense than road haulage for the environment. There are 30 times less CO2 emissions compared with 30 lorries – and fewer drivers are needed to transport the goods. Our company serves a wide range of industries for freight forwarding services in the UK with 500 wagons available. These include flat wagons, vans and coil carriers. Freight forwarding services are available for the transport of FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods), steel, paper and laminate board. From London to Lille, or Manchester to Marseilles, Freight Europe is the best choice for trans-European freight transportation.
