This method of transportation, which combines the advantages of rail and road transport, offers flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and environmental benefits.
Warsaw on the Path to a New Stage of Metro Development
In this context, LTG Cargo is making a significant move to strengthen its market position by introducing a new mobile container loader at the Kaunas Intermodal Terminal.
The Swedish Alwark loader, weighing 77 tons, has become a true technological breakthrough for the Lithuanian freight carrier.
This unique unit is capable of handling containers of various sizes – 20, 40, and 45 feet, as well as semi-trailers.
The special feature of the loader lies in its custom grip, which allows for safe and efficient loading and unloading.
Moreover, the loader can be used as a mobile crane thanks to the possibility of installing lifting chains on the container grip.
Acquiring such equipment not only expands the technical capabilities of LTG Cargo but also opens up new opportunities for providing additional intermodal cargo services.
LTG Cargo will be able to offer its clients a wider range of solutions, including operations on both narrow and broad gauge tracks.
This will significantly enhance LTG Cargo’s competitiveness on the international stage.
It is important to note that the implementation of this project became possible thanks to the fruitful collaboration between LTG Cargo, LTG Infra, and the loader manufacturer Alwark.
Using advanced technologies and investing in innovative equipment allows LTG Cargo not only to improve the quality of its services but also to make a significant contribution to the development of the region’s transport infrastructure.
This, in turn, fosters economic growth and strengthens connections between different countries and regions.
