RailCargo
Faster, safer, cheaper – with rail carriage
For less urgent deliveries where timetables have some degree of flexibility, trains can be an attractive alternative to trucks: not only are they environmentally-friendly, offer large capacities and favourable freight rates, but they never ever get stuck in traffic. All Gebrüder Weiss offices are located in direct proximity to railway connections.
GW Rail Cargo Ges.m.b.H. is the rail transport company of the GW organisation. Rail Cargo organises the transport of bulk cargo – exclusively by train – throughout all of Europe. GW Rail Cargo Ges.m.b.H., operating as an autonomous subsidiary of Gebrüder Weiss since 1993, has developed into one of Austria’s largest rail carrier in record time. A success which can also be measured in numbers: just last year, close to 862,000 tons of freight were transported – that corresponds to approximately 20,000 4-axle waggons and thus roughly 40,000 (saved) truck trips.
With the environmental argument as well as low-priced options for large-volume goods, GW Rail Cargo easily trounces "normal” routes of transportation. Main customers are mineral oil, chemical and agricultural companies.
