DVTGroup and VR Cargo to launch first train to Finland this month
Far Eastern Transport Group (DVTGroup) signed the agreement with VR Cargo Ltd on containerized cargo transportation.
According to the agreement, the first train will be launched to Finland in July 2007. VR Cargo will deliver the platforms of DVTGroup to the clients of the Russian company using its own railway. VR Cargo will supply cargo, provide information on car operations and their dislocation and dispatch them by order of DVTGroup.
The companies will establish the on-line information interchange. DVTGroup has provided VR Cargo with the list of its cars and the Finnish company put them into their data base. Now, the traffic control center of VR Cargo will work with them in continuous contact with the specialists of DVTGroup. DVTGroup will improve the route traffic, accelerate the cargo delivery and minimize the risk of transport costs in the result of inefficient use of rolling stock, reports Railway Market-CEE Review.
