INDEX
CoolRail is the first train connection of its kind,
offering an unprecedented reduction in CO2 emissions.
From trade journals in the field of transport, logistics and fresh produce to daily newspapers and even national TV news in The Netherlands… Our dedicated rail link between Valencia and Rotterdam drew huge publicity. No wonder, since CoolRail is the first train connection of its kind, offering an unprecedented reduction in CO2 emissions.
CoolRail started operating in May 2019 and has been making roundtrips between The Netherlands and Spain three times a week ever since.

On each trip, a 625 meters long train consisting of 42 temperature-controlled containers travels from Valencia and Barcelona to Rotterdam, carrying different types of fruit and vegetables.
On the return trip empty folded trays and frozen potato chips are transported to Spain to make efficient use of the available cargo space.
CoolRail kick-off
Saving 12,000 truck movements per year
By transporting fresh produce by CoolRail instead of road transport CO2 emissions are reduced by
70
%
90
%
This is due to the fact that one train replaces
42
truck loads
=6
On a yearly basis
this comes down
to a reduction of
12,000
truck movements
saving 22 million kilometres of road transport.
This equals a CO2
reduction of approximately
15,000 tons per year,
comparable to the
output of
6
large wind
turbines
And the best thing is: CoolRail is just as fast as road transport and involves no extra charge for our clients.
