Lithuanian Railways started transporting coal to Poland

LTG Cargo, a freight transport company of the Lithuanian Railways Group (LTG), has started transporting coal to Poland from the port of Klaipeda. The first train is already on the way, LTG said.

At the request of the Polish state-owned coal importer, cargoes will be transported from the port of Klaipeda to Trakiszki, from where LTG Cargo Polska will transport them to Białystok, and then the partners will deliver coal to Braniewo in north-western Poland.

Egle Szime, general director of LTG Cargo, says that "both the company and the market in the region are actively diversifying logistics routes and looking for alternative routes to bypass Russia and Belarus".
