First block train from Sweden to China via Karlshamn - Mukran

After several trips with single containers via Port of Karlshamn and Mukran Port (Sassnitz), the first block train from Sweden reached Mukran Port last night (by ship, capacity of a complete train) and will be further transported to China. Due to Karlshamn - Mukran sea connection, the Swedish market is linked to the "Baltic Sea Bridge", which organises regular container trains with its partners, to and from China, via the high frequent short sea connection Mukran - Baltiysk (Russia / Kaliningrad region). All containers incoming from Sweden are transported directly to Baltiysk and onwards to China through the existing service. Port of Karlshamn is connected daily via rail to more than 40 destinations in Sweden. The major consumption areas in Sweden are reached within 2-6 hours by truck.
