SCT Transport starts container rail shuttle Karlshamn - Gothenburg

The Gothenburg based container transport providor SCT Transport has now started their sixth rail shuttle in Sweden for transportation of containers. The new shuttle runs between Port of Karlshamn and APM Terminals in Gothenburg.

The shuttle is established through a co-operation between Port of Karlshamn, Tågfrakt, SCT transport and APM Terminals in Gothenburg.

- SCT Transport will run the shuttle Karlshamn - Gothenburg once per week in each direction, but hopefully the frequency can be increased already later this year, says Svante Altås, CEO of SCT Transport. SCT already runs container shuttles between Gothenburg and Örebro/Hallsberg, Eskilstuna, Jönköping and Gävle.

With electrified tracks to the port and intermodal terminal i Port of Karlshamn, there is no use for local shunting by diesel locomotives, why SCT can offer a environmental friendly solution all the way to Karlshamn. 

With the new shuttle, Port of Karlshamn is served by three operators; Green Cargo, Vida Wood/CFL Cargo Sweden and SCT Transport.
