Giving up services and shunting<\/h2>\n

The landscape remains somewhat uncertain for 2025. At the end of last year, Green Cargo gave up two important rail freight services. The first one is the North Rail Express in Norway, linking Oslo and the port of Narvik for the transport of fish products. The second one is a service on behalf of Swedish timber company Moelven.<\/p>\n
