海角视频 manufacturers have been handed a logistics boost from Europe after P&O Ferries doubled its rail capacity at Holland鈥檚 Europoort.

A second line has been established into the terminal at the continental hub.

The 650-metre long track will complement the firm鈥檚 existing Rotterdam facilities, and means that the integrated ferry and logistics company can handle up to four trains of either 36 trailers or 42 containers a day, comprising eight services to and from locations across Europe to Hull and Teesside.

Janette Bell, chief executive of P&O Ferries, said: 鈥淭his new rail capacity will help even more of our customers solve their supply chain challenges and make trade flow by utilising the unrivalled combined assets of P&O Ferries and P&O Ferrymasters.
