Case Netherlands - Russia • Shortsea to Russia (Baltic ports) – 19 container and 2 Ro-Ro services – 20 / 4 sailings per week – Shortsea least expensive modality – Transit time (slightly) longer than road and rail • Rail – Limited volume to Russia – Mainly project cargo (machinery) – Different rail gauge, transhipment Malaszewice

Issues • In future one type of liability vs CIM/SMGS • Ports, maily St Petersburg (were) often congested • Growth use of trans-siberian route • Railferry Sassnitz-Klaipeda: (slightly) most 5 westerly station of the trans-siberian express.
