Ningbo starts first sea-rail container intermodal to Jiangxi

AFTER launch of a number of sea-rail container intermodal services from hinterland province Jiangxi to the Port of Ningbo, the first Jiangxi-bound service has been inaugurated.

The first run carried 88 TEU, mostly from MSC, OOCL, Yang Ming and KMTC on 44 rail cars. Ningbo Port Southeast Logistics Co Ltd is the operator of the service.

The return journey is expected to start February 10. The Ningbo-Jiangxi sea-rail container intermodal service is expected to have carried about 8,000 TEU by the end of this year.

Ningbo will develop more non-scheduled sea-rail container service bound for Jiangxi in the future and turn them into scheduled services according to market conditions.

Ningbo Port Southeast Logistics promises to devote more efforts on expanding the hinterland markets in Jiangxi and Hunan province.
