Exclusive product logo for single wagon transport
The network "Zukunft Einzelwagenverkehr” was founded in May 2021, and 29 of the 150 rail freight operators in the Association of German Transport Companies (VDV) have so far joined. These partners want to strengthen their cooperation and promote the network’s continued growth. An own logo will help create a brand for single wagon transport and also bring the partners closer together. The idea is to demonstrate their commitment to a common product.
