Stock Photo - 05 December 2022, Saxony, Leipzig: Nicolas Albrecht, CEO CargoBeamer, explains how a semi-trailer is loaded onto a rail car at a freight station using a new loading technique. The Leipzig-based company CargoBeamer aims to make freight transport within Europe more efficient and environmentally friendly. In the newly developed terminal, truck trailers can be moved sideways onto the train wagon with the help of a so-called loading trough. This circumvents the problem that almost all truck trailers cannot be lifted by crane, making rail loading costly and not worthwhile. The company's first terminal is in operation in Calais in northern France. Photo: Jan Woitas/dpa. - Leipzig/Saxony/Germany
