SBB Cargo is developing an integrated national intermodal strategy based on two new terminals.
Gateway Limmattal in Dietikon near Zurich will be the Swiss hub for rail-borne containers to and from the major north European ports, while a second facility in the Rhine port of Basle will handle rail/river traffic.
Limmattal will open in the middle of the decade while Basle is expected to come in stream in 2013-14
