This takes pressure off roads, protects the environment and cuts CO2 emissions.

Everyone knows it: freight belongs on rail.

Rail really points the way ahead.

  • CO2 emissions are 80% lower
    Nothing beats trains when it comes to climate-friendly transport. They emit up to 80% less CO2 than lorries and 40% less CO2 than inland waterway vessels.
  • One freight train replaces up to 52 lorries
    This creates space on motorways and frees roads from congestion.
  • Up to 50% reduction in external costs
    Trains cause fewer large-scale problems than lorries: they experience fewer accidents, cause less damage to the environment and have a reduced impact on landscapes.

What we want to achieve by 2030:

Halve CO2 emissions
in the transport sector.
The climate goal is also our goal. We can achieve it by combining rail and road transport cleverly between now and 2030.

We need your support for this.

If you are in favour of climate-friendly transport, please sign up for our campaign. Every name makes us stronger!
