DHL Industrial Projects, a unit of DHL Global Forwarding that manages complex project logistics, deep sea chartering activity and heavy-lift cargo, is supporting Dunakeszi Járműjavító Kft with the transport of the largest order of rolling stock in the history of Hungary.

In total, 676 coaches are being transferred from the production site in Dunakeszi, Hungary, to Egypt within a period of 32 (days).

In a statement, DHL said it will manage the end-to-end transport of the coaches, each weighing 48 tons and measuring 24.5 metres in length, as well as 4.5 meters in height.

Packaged for export, the coaches are transported via rail to the port of Koper, Slovenia, where DHL is integrating the cargo via its charter carriers. From there DHL will deliver the cargo via sea directly onto the railway network in Egypt at the port of Alexandria.

The first batch arrived safely in Alexandria on February 23.
