ERS Railways B.V.

ERS Railways is a fully independent railway company, 100% owned by Freightliner Group Ltd., with five offices in four countries across Europe. With our modern fleet of locomotives and over 400 leased container platforms, low-bed as well as double pocket wagons, we are one of the leading players in the growing European inter modal transport market. We have so far been granted railway licenses in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany.

European Rail Shuttle B.V. was founded in 1994 as a joint venture between the companies Sealand Service, P & O Containers, Nedlloyd and NS Cargo. These four companies were aiming to cooperate in order to take full advantage of the liberalization process in Europe which started the same year. Pretty soon after the start of the joint venture, NS Cargo decided to step out, being replaced by Maersk Line joining the three other shipping lines.

In honor of the second anniversary of the direct rail shuttle service Rotterdam – Poznan and the one year anniversary of the PIB consortium, a festive event was organized at CLIP terminal in Swarzedz on 25th of June.
