ITL: Freight transport to Eastern and Central Europe

International logistics from Dresden

ITL Eisenbahngesellschaft mbH (ITL) is a reliable partner for rail-bound logistics solutions along the East-West corridor. Since its foundation in December 1998, ITL, based in Dresden, has developed from a regional contractor for construction logistics to an internationally active railway operator. Strategically located on European freight corridors, the Saxon company is now responsible for market development in central and eastern Germany and the Czech Republic within the Captrain Group.

Diverse industry expertise

ITL has extensive experience in designing and implementing customised transport solutions for various sectors, including the construction industry, the oil, gas and fuel industry as well as the vehicle and agricultural industries. ITL ensures that goods with the most diverse transport requirements reach their destination safely and reliably, both regionally and supraregionally. As a Captrain Group company, ITL is also part of a Europe-wide network and can therefore offer efficient and flexible logistics solutions both nationally and internationally. 

Entrepreneurship in the Czech Republic and Poland

In 2001, ITL founded its Czech subsidiary ITL-Železniční společnost Praha s.r.o. and was the first private railway company with which the Czech state railway cooperated in 2003. The establishment of the Polish rail transport company ITL Polska Sp. z o.o. (now Captrain Polska) followed in 2006. These strategic investments still enable the Captrain Group to organise transports from Hungary, Romania and Slovakia to Germany and beyond efficiently.

In-house workshop capacities

ITL operates a modern specialised workshop in Pirna for the maintenance and repair of its rolling stock. The workshop is not only used to maintain the company's own locomotives and wagons, but also offers its services to external partners, manufacturers, leasing companies and other rail operators. In May 2020, the workshop was expanded by 1,655 m², including a new cleaning facility for locomotives and wagons as well as additional storage and staff rooms. ITL keeps a close eye on the social and environmental impact of its new construction projects: for example, rainwater is collected for cleaning the locomotives and the company's own solar power system provides electricity for the workshop.

Modern fleet

ITL relies on Stadler EURODUAL and Siemens Vectron Dual Mode - modern dual-power locomotives that combine electric and diesel drive. They can be used efficiently on both electrified and non-electrified routes. This allows customers' supply chains to become more flexible. At the same time, emissions are reduced. With this strategy, ITL, as part of the Captrain Group, is helping to further improve the sustainability of rail as the most environmentally friendly mode of transport.

ITL as a regional employer

The motto in Dresden and Pirna is: no matter what, everyone for the cause! Like a well-oiled gearbox, our colleagues work hand in hand, because railways are always a collective effort.
