Shunting services for rail companies in freight transport
We offer other rail companies throughout Switzerland non-discriminatory access to our local delivery service. This includes the delivery of trains, wagons or wagon groups between the rail infrastructure (receiving station) and the sidings or CT transshipment facilities.
Scope of the service
The service includes the operation of defined sidings and/or loading/unloading points (delivery or collection of trains, single freight cars or wagon groups ready for collection from the defined operating point to the loading point at the siding).
Prices
The price includes the one-off delivery or collection and is based on the 'first come, first serve' principle. Preferential treatment of individual market participants by reserving capacity is therefore excluded.
