Regular rail traffic to Wuhan resumes at Port of Duisburg

Hutchison Ports Duisburg has welcomed one of the first trains carrying goods out of Wuhan since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic as regular rail transport resumes between Duisburg and China.

Rail volume between the port and China was considerably reduced during the crisis in China, where half of all shipping traffic with China came to a temporary standstill.

Wuhan, which has been considered the starting point of the pandemic, along with the entire province of Hubei were cut off from all goods and passenger transport for approximately two months.
