RAIL TRANSPORT

RAILPORT BRABANT

Railport Brabant is an important, multimodal link, which makes it possible to transport goods by rail between Tilburg and many European and Asian destinations. Together with Barge Terminal Tilburg, Railport Brabant forms a tri-modal cluster, which guarantees maximum flexibility and security of transport, and offers solutions for all transport-related needs. 

Rail transport is particularly suitable for transporting larger volumes over medium-to-long distances. An increasing number of shipping companies view rail transport as a sustainable alternative to road transport, which is becoming increasingly expensive and is hampered by traffic congestion. 

Railport Brabant arranges the storage and transshipment of bulk cargo, project cargo and other conventional cargo. The advanced rail terminal has four long railway sidings and is easily accessible to all rail operators. The Railport Brabant terminal also has an ultra-modern warehouse where cargo from containers can be loaded into continental loading units, or vice versa, by means of cross-docking. 

Advantages of Railport Brabant:

• Starting point for rail transport to many European and Asian destinations.
• Strategic location.
• Hotspot Tilburg is the logistical heart of Brabant.
• 600 metres of railway sidings enable cost-efficient loading and unloading of trains.
• Cross-docking facilities for (inter)continental transport at the terminal.
• Central management for other logistics activities.
