A train belonging to the Romanian Railway Group (GFR) was the first freight train that went through the Galati – Giurgiulesti border crossing point three days after the European gauge railway in southern Moldova was opened to traffic, IPN reports.
According to a communiqué of the Grampet Group, the train consisting of 16 freight cars and a tank reached the destination - the oil terminal in Giurgiulesti port - last weekend. The new railway connection between Moldova and the European community allows performing import-export operations by all types of transport.
The Romanian Railway Group, which forms part of the Grampet Group, is the largest private railway freight transport operator in Romania.
