\n

\u00d6BB Rail Cargo Group is strengthening its position in Southeastern Europe with the launch of regular freight services on the upgraded railway line between Budapest and Belgrade. The modernized section, approximately 350 km long, significantly increases capacity and reduces delivery times, improving the region\u2019s connection to key European transport corridors. The line is particularly important for cargo flows from Greek ports, including the Port of Piraeus, as well as shipments from Asia to Europe.<\/p>\n

As part of the modernization, 166 km of the line in Hungary were completely renovated: the track was double-tracked and electrified. The infrastructure can now handle freight trains up to 740 meters long in Hungary and up to 550 meters in Serbia (up to 650 meters with special permission). This ensures increased capacity, increased reliability, and greater predictability of logistics operations.<\/p>\n

An additional benefit is the simplification of logistics in the Budapest area: trains arriving from the south can now travel directly to Rail Cargo Terminal BILK, bypassing the busy Ferencv\u00e1ros railway hub. This shortens routes, reduces the burden on infrastructure, and improves the overall efficiency of freight transport in the region.<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
