Hupac’s network covers the entire continent with daily trains. Focal points are the economic areas in Germany, northern Italy, Belgium and the Netherlands. From there, dozens of trains connect peripheral and emerging markets such as Spain, France, Scandinavia, Poland, Switzerland, Austria, south-east Europe and Turkey.

Dedicated terminals

Our network is based on efficient terminals managed
or co-managed by Hupac. The main locations are north Italy, Antwerp, Rotterdam, Duisburg, Ludwigshafen, Singen and Warsaw/Brwinów. Terminal projects are located in Duisburg, Basel, Brescia, Milan and Piacenza.

Strike in France hinders the introduction of a new intermodal link

The strike in France is making rail transport on European corridors through France very difficult. While train traffic on the Antwerp-Barcelona and Busto-Barcelona connections is severely reduced, we are unfortunately forced to postpone the launch of the new Perpignan-Köln link. The first departure was scheduled for 13 January 2020.


The project aims to transfer a large part of the traffic between the south of France and Germany to rail, with gateway connections to Scandinavia. Despite a long and accurate preparation period, we are only now receiving information from SNCF Reseau that, in connection with the strike, the train paths for the 5 weekly departures per hour cannot be confirmed.


It is Hupac's intention to offer a stable and high-performance service to European intermodal transport customers. The introduction of the service Perpignan-Cologne will therefore be postponed until March 2020.
