The offensive lobbying of the IBS and the cooperation with other associations and organisations are becoming more and more important because of the expansion of the European Union.

 The RAILOG GmbH was founded in 2001 and is a 100% subsidiary of Schenker today. Within the Schenker Group, RAILOG is the centre of competence for rail-based products and Pan-European rail concepts.  Last year, the RAILOG Group had a turnover of around Euro 200 million. Apart from the German company, the units in Austria, Italy, Sweden, Poland and the Czech Republic contributed to this result. The core business comprises single wagon transport as well as block train systems in Europe as well as block trains to South Eastern Europe.

Any type of wagon may be used. The European network of the RAILOG Group is efficient, economical and safe. The rail logistics company controls and steers the block trains. Thus, the consignments are delivered in a targeted and order-related manner. RAILOG organises the transport of furniture, refrigerators and tv-sets for the customers. But clay, tiles, industrial goods, steel, paper and wood also belong to the range of goods transported. In 2004, RAILOG moved some five million tons of transport goods and managed 160,000 wagons. The individual logistics concepts comprise the rail as well as the road and inland navigation. On request, additional logistical services are offered, such as storage, transhipment or distribution. Thus, RAILOG provides the entire logistical chain and enables customers to avail of doorstep-to-doorstep transports - always connected with the respective flow of information, for instance, tracking of the consignments. In the area of consulting, RAILOG combines years of experience from rail transports, logistics and warehouse management. RAILOG advises the customers as regards the choice of location, infrastructure, the design of the logistical processes, transport alternatives and cost optimisation. Furthermore, the company supports its customers in selecting the wagon and container materials.

The Turkey Container Shuttle (TCS) runs weekly between the cities of Duisburg und Istanbul and transports consumer goods, electrical appliances, automobile parts and chemical products. Together with their partners, RAILOG organise the provision of the containers directly at the shipper’s and delivers them to the recipient in the country of destination. The customers benefit from this offer in more than one way: the departure times are scheduled. The run always lasts for six days and also the cost is predictable thanks to fixed annual prices.
