I came across the following press release on the EWS website:
Revolution in Channel Tunnel rail freight
Thursday 22 November 2007
English Welsh & Scottish Railway Holdings Limited (EWS) today
announces one of the biggest revolutions in cross-border rail freight
which will facilitate a period of sustainable long-term growth in
Channel Tunnel rail freight volumes.
A new network of European intermodal rail freight services, operated
by Euro Cargo Rail, will be launched from January 2008 connecting key
European hubs with Britain.
The new intermodal services take advantage of the Channel
Tunnel "open access" regime announced in October. For the first time
Euro Cargo Rail will take full accountability for reliable,
integrated rail services with improved transit times and a reduction
in operating complexity.
During 2008, services will be rolled out to connect Belgium, Germany,
Italy, France, Spain and Switzerland with the key UK economic regions
of the Midlands, North West England and Scotland.
The initial launch plan includes:
Brussels to Daventry three times per week from January 2008
Duisburg to Manchester six times per week from February 2008
Milan to Manchester five times per week from March 2008
