In today’s global economy, where speed, reliability, and safety define business success, the East-West Gate Intermodal Terminal and Warehouse in Fényeslitke, Hungary, stands as a model of modern logistics.

This is reported by the railway transport news portal Railway Supply.

Innovative Logistics Hub East-West Gate

As the largest inland intermodal terminal in Europe, it combines advanced technology, a strategic location, and world-class infrastructure to meet the highest customer demands.

Strategic Location and Excellent Connectivity

Located at the railway junction of Fényeslitke, East-West Gate (EWG) benefits from direct access to both broad-gauge (1,520 mm) and standard-gauge (1,435 mm) rail networks — a rare advantage in European logistics.

This unique position enables seamless freight flow between Eastern and Western Europe.

The surrounding industrial park integrates rail, road, and warehousing operations into one system, ensuring efficiency and flexibility for international logistics chains.

The terminal can handle 740-meter-long trains, ensuring smooth transit and reduced delivery times across major trade corridors.

Terminal Capacity and Technical Capabilities

The East-West Gate terminal can process up to 1 million TEU per year, along with 1 million tons of grain and 2 million tons of vegetable oil annually.

Three rail-mounted cranes (each with a 45-ton capacity) and one RTG crane serve the container yard, ensuring rapid and safe transshipment between rail and road.

All operations are monitored through a real-time 3D digital twin, while cranes are controlled remotely, maximizing precision and safety.

The terminal is certified under the EU SEVESO Directive and fully equipped for handling hazardous materials, using ATEX-certified cranes to ensure compliance with international safety standards.

World-Class Warehousing and Safety Standards

East-West Gate offers 14,000 m² of modern warehousing facilities with a stable indoor temperature of 15 °C year-round, ensuring optimal storage conditions for temperature-sensitive goods.

The warehouse features 20 loading docks and four ground-level gates for trucks, simplifying operations.

An automatic sprinkler fire suppression system, 24/7 surveillance, and advanced access control provide maximum cargo security.

The terminal’s 1 MW backup power capacity guarantees uninterrupted operation even during emergencies.

Storage capacity reaches up to 10,000 TEU, including areas for refrigerated containers with plug-in and refueling options.

Efficient Handling of Grain, Oil, and Semi-Trailers

The 300-meter covered transshipment hall allows quick and weather-protected transfer of grain and unrefined vegetable oils.

East-West Gate also provides RO-LA (Rolling Highway) services, enabling the transportation of entire trucks and trailers on special rail wagons.

This service helps reduce road congestion, cut fuel consumption, and lower CO₂ emissions, promoting sustainable intermodal logistics.

Digitalization and Environmental Responsibility

OCR gates, integrated digital weighing systems, and paperless documentation ensure transparency and speed across all operations.

East-West Gate continuously invests in green technologies to minimize its environmental footprint and improve energy efficiency.

The terminal also operates an in-house customs agency, offering a full range of services — from customs clearance and bonded storage to temporary warehousing — simplifying international trade procedures.
