STEEL LINE for the future and internationell connections

The high-speed trains need the goods to become a profitable investment

We consider it completely out of the question that the small country of Sweden would be able to handle the investments in high-speed trains without the goods being able to be included. The small population base that Sverieg has, and the extended country layout, do not allow the estate to be left out. It is not possible to count the high-speed trains home, with the exception of certain short distances. If you want to invest in high-speed trains, the involvement of goods is a must.

It can be solved with innovations that account for future involvement and create a financial basis for a future investment and expansion of a high-speed network.

Why not a joint solution with a terminal for passengers and goods

It can be solved with common spaces if you let parts of the train carry goods and the other part passengers. With our technology for handling containers, a container gets off the train in 2 minutes and it happens without a human being involved. If you count on a 5-minute stop, the technology also has time to load a container in that time. This means that there will be completely different calculations to pay the investments for the high-speed trains.

The high-speed trains can be located one floor higher than the regular station

Rational solution with the high-speed trains 1 floor up

It is possible to create very interesting and innovative solutions that can combine passenger traffic with freight transport. It will mean a lot for the financial resources needed to implement the high-speed train investments.

As the Internet estate grows, there is increased interest in joint solutions

Internet freight will of course increase and will place increasingly high demands on fast transport. For Sweden, with its low population base, it will be of interest to combine people and the fast internet goods. it is possible to create very interesting and relatively large terminals with a large flow of both passengers and goods through the common terminals.

The ports must be involved

Of course, the ports must be integrated into the high-speed rail expansion. They are important breaking points for much of the goods that have arrived in Sweden but also leave the country.

A rational solution for the port is of great importance for the flow of goods in and out of the country.

Sweden's possibilities with high-speed trains stand and fall with the goods

The much-infested debate about the high-speed trains investment opportunities comes in a completely different situation if you involve freight traffic. It is not only in Sweden that this need exists, but in most countries that have far too small a population base for it to justify passenger transport alone.
