Delays in passenger transport could become more frequent. (Source: Pixabay)<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Container jam in port<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the last few weeks, container ships that can no longer put out to sea have been gathering in the Rhine ports. The water level is simply too low. But not all freighters are stuck. Some pass the flat fairway of the Rhine, albeit with significantly less load. However, the fact that the terminals of the ports are almost fully utilized is mainly due to the lockdown in Shanghai, which also affects the port. The Ukraine war is also making its contribution. The low water is now doing the rest and exacerbating the situation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Free travel for freight trains?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Federal Ministry of Economics and Transport has now drawn up an ordinance that temporarily regulates freight transport: freight trains carrying coal, gas, crude oil and other products important for energy supply are to be given priority on the rails.<\/p>\n<p>When the ordinance comes into force, this may mean more delays in staff traffic. Train passengers would then have to wait. Transport Minister Volker Wissing sees this measure both necessary and justified. After all, it is also in the interest of the passengers that the energy supply is secured, he explained in the ARD &#8220;Morgenmagazin&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>It is not yet certain whether the freight trains will actually be given priority. This will probably become clear in the next few days.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spiegel.de\/wirtschaft\/unternehmen\/volker-wissing-will-kohlewaggons-in-der-energiekrise-bevorzugen-personenzuege-sollen-warten-a-b458f709-b521-4663-801f-f26ffcd0637b?xing_share=news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spiegel.de<\/a> (German)<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to the extremely low water levels in the rivers [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3023","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-allgemein-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Container jams in the ports: Do rail customers have to \u201ctake the buck\u201d? - Nicola Bernard<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Container jams in the ports: Do rail customers have to \u201ctake the buck\u201d? - Nicola Bernard\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Due to the extremely low water levels in the rivers [&hellip;]\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Nicola Bernard\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-08-19T08:16:05+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-03-18T09:47:31+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/freight-train-ga6cf7e0ad_640-300x166.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"nicola.bernard\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"nicola.bernard\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/\",\"name\":\"Container jams in the ports: Do rail customers have to \u201ctake the buck\u201d? - Nicola Bernard\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/freight-train-ga6cf7e0ad_640-300x166.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-08-19T08:16:05+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-03-18T09:47:31+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/7a09693188c7e9880d798b5b412350a4\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/container-jams-in-the-ports-do-rail-customers-have-to-take-the-buck\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/freight-train-ga6cf7e0ad_640-300x166.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/freight-train-ga6cf7e0ad_640-300x166.jpg\"},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/nicola-bernard.de\/en\/\",\"name\":\"Nicola Bernard\",\"description\":\"Serviceb\u00fcro f.
