Pusan Newport Co gets on dock rail

Busan: DP World's Pusan Newport Co (PNC) has opened its first on dock rail facility. The 60,000 sq m facility is expected to service all existing terminals at Newport and the nearby freight stations and free zone. It has two operational units each with four 600m sidings. "The ability to seamlessly transition containers between modes offers customers an opportunity to block-train cargo from Busan to the major cargo generation centres including Seoul," said Peter Wong, DP World's senior vice president and managing director for the Asia Pacific.
