Austrian rail freight company RCG is investing 68 million euros in the modernization of the Wels terminal
Rail Cargo Group (RCG), the Austrian national rail freight company, has initiated the enhancement of its rail terminal in Wels, located approximately 30 kilometers southwest of Linz. The expansion project involves extending the four loading tracks from 580 to 700 meters, catering to the requirements of longer block trains. With a total investment of 68 million euros, jointly funded by RCG and the European Union, the upgraded terminal is slated for completion by 2027. In addition to the track extension, the endeavor includes creating an extra connection to the west, linking to Linz and Vienna through the marshalling yard in Wels, with assurances from the company that the project will not impact the timetable.
