STRONG PARTNERSHIPS MAKE INTERMODAL LOGISTICS WORK. 🚆

🤝 We are pleased to see cargo-partner further strengthening its logistics hub in Dunajská Streda, Slovakia.

The direct rail connection between cargo-partner’s iLogistics Center and the METRANS intermodal terminal in Dunajská Streda is a strong example of how rail-based logistics can support faster, more efficient, and more sustainable supply chains across Central and Eastern Europe.

✅ By moving containers directly from rail to warehouse, this solution helps reduce last-mile trucking, shorten transit times, and support demanding industries such as automotive, high-tech, and advanced manufacturing.

We value this partnership and are proud to contribute to logistics solutions that connect European ports with Central European manufacturing and distribution centres.

GATEWAYS THAT MOVE BUSINESS FORWARD 🚆🌍

In intermodal logistics, growth is not only about adding new locations.

It is about creating the right access points — closer to markets, closer to customers, and closer to the flows that keep European business moving.

Terminals such as Budapest, Poznań (Gądki), and Krems an der Donau play an important role in expanding the METRANS network across key regions. Each one strengthens the system in a different way, supporting smarter connections, greater flexibility, and more efficient cargo flows across Europe.

🚆 More access to rail
🔗 Stronger regional connections
📍 Better links between ports, inland terminals, and customers
🌍 A wider reach for European intermodal transport

This is what purposeful expansion looks like.

Not just more terminals on the map, but stronger gateways for business, trade, and long-term growth.

At METRANS, every new connection adds value to the whole network and helps move Europe forward.

EUROPEAN FREIGHT IS ONLY AS STRONG AS ITS CROSS-BORDER CONNECTIONS. 🚆

From rail capacity and TEN-T corridors to infrastructure funding and international cooperation, the 100th meeting of the Czech-German Transport and Logistics Working Group hosted by AHK Tschechien , focused on one shared challenge: keeping Europe connected.

As supply chains become increasingly international, transport infrastructure can no longer be viewed through a national lens alone. Efficient freight flows depend on seamless cross-border connections, sufficient capacity, and long-term investment strategies. 📈

For intermodal operators, connectivity is not just about moving cargo. It is about creating reliable transport corridors that connect markets, terminals, ports, and customers across Europe.

These discussions matter because the future of freight transport will be built not only through infrastructure projects, but through cooperation, coordination, and a shared commitment to keeping Europe moving. 🏗️

INTERMODAL TRANSPORT IS BUILT ON CONNECTIONS. 🌍🚆

Last week, METRANS participated in Intermodal in Poland 2026, one of the key industry events bringing together logistics professionals, infrastructure experts, and transport leaders from across the region. 🤝

As the General Partner of the conference, METRANS was proud to contribute to discussions on the future of intermodal transport, international connectivity, and supply chain development. ⚙️

Our team shared operational insights, exchanged experiences with industry partners, and took part in discussions on the challenges and opportunities shaping European logistics today. 📈

BUILT TRAIN BY TRAIN 🚆

METRANS did not become a European network overnight.

💪 It was built step by step, from a focused operation with a few key terminals into a powerful intermodal network connecting ports, inland terminals, customers, and partners across Europe.

📊 In the early years, one train a day was part of the reality. Today, METRANS operates 20 terminals and handles more than 650 trains per week.

That kind of growth is never accidental. It is the result of long-term vision, operational excellence, bold decisions, and the confidence to keep moving ahead of the market.

From the very beginning, METRANS has turned ambition into action, building new routes, opening new opportunities, and creating the connections that keep European logistics moving.

🌍 Because strong networks are not built all at once.

They are built train by train.
