Book your own train

The Company Shuttle unit of Hupac Intermodal serves customers who charter their own trains and secure capacity at an attractive price. Each company shuttle runs exclusively for up to three partners who take on the full loading commitment. Your advantages:

  • customised schedules meeting your specific needs
  • cost effective with fully automated standard procedures
  • procurement power of a strong partner.

We make your challenge a success 

Trains are our job. We provide our know-how to ensure that your trains are an instant success. From purchasing railway services and operational control of the day-to-day business to taking action in case of disturbances and wagon management – we act as an interface to the railways and free you up to focus on your core business.

 

Tailor-made to satisfy highest expectations

Each train is individually arranged to meet the customer’s needs. Based on the required route, schedule and frequency, we evaluate the needed components and define the required service level. For example, the package may comprise:

  • wagon rental and fleet management
  • terminal services
  • train monitoring and operational control 24/7
  • backup wagons or compositions
  • further added value services such as positioning of empty equipment, in-plant services, etc.

Integrated order management

Orders are processed efficiently. We install a customised order-to-billing system for each train with effective IT integration between the customer’s ERP software and Hupac’s operating system.

 

When do you run your first company train?

A company shuttle offers guaranteed loading capacity at an attractive price. In addition, your own intermodal train is a strong statement for climate-friendly, efficient transport solutions – a clear competitive advantage in the logistics market.

Team
Second wave COVID-19: we support logistics

The COVID-19 pandemic is spreading with renewed speed all over Europe. Hupac reinforces its preventive measures and takes provisions to secure the operational continuity of intermodal services.

 

More in detail:

 

Human resources management "No risk"

Our staff is safe and protected by a number of measures that are proactively adapted to the local situation, including:

  • Personal protection with devices for hygiene and disinfection
  • Strict physical distancing in all working environments
  • Wide use of home office and tele-conferencing, with devices that allow the same functionality as with  physical presence in the office
  • Clear processes in case of contagion.

 

Terminal management "Contactless"

Our terminals are organised in a way to reduce physical contacts between all people involved in terminal operations:

  • Automatic check-in and digital transfer of transport documents (Terminal Busto Arsizio-Gallarate)
  • Regulated access to the counters, keeping a safe distance between people
  • Counter protection with glass, frequent disinfection of surfaces
  • Transhipment operations without direct interaction between people
  • Departure of the truck without the driver getting out of his cab or getting into contact with terminal operators.


Contingency management "Ready for the challenge"

We think ahead and want to be prepared even if the situations gets critical:

  • In the unlikely case of a terminal shutdown, we have structural contingency-plan terminals in our network
  • In addition, we are optioning capacity and train-paths in further terminal infrastructures
  • We have planned back-up railcars, locomotives and drivers at our disposal
  • All Hupac departments are adopting a decentralised work organisation with separation inside the building and large use of home office, in order to have a parallel organisation in case of shortcomings or shutdowns.

 

The COVID-19 first wave has proven the strategic importance of intermodal transport. Letting goods travel by train minimises the risks and offers a stable alternative in case of difficulties for truck drivers to work cross-border.

 

The Hupac network contributes to the supply of goods in a safe and sustainable manner - we are ready to take the challenge according to our motto "moving together"!
