Always the right connection on the track

BTT Railport Brabant is an important multimodal link in rail transport between Tilburg and European and Asian destinations. It is directly located on the main tracks and is therefore connected to the most important economic regions in the Netherlands, Belgium and France and to the rail freight corridor between Rotterdam and Germany. BTT Railport Brabant is ultra-modern and well secured and equipped for unloading all types of trailers and containers. The four railway sidings - easily accessible for rail operators - and the marshalling area with its own shunting capability ensure great flexibility and short throughput times.
