The launch of Euro Carex (Cargo Rail Express) ¨C a pan-European, high-speed rail service for express and air cargo currently handled by truck and aircraft, has been significantly delayed, but the project's managers have played down suggestions that this is due to the economic slowdown.
The first Euro Carex trains had been earmarked to operate between Paris-CDG and Lyon St Exupery airports from end-March 2012. However, a spokesman for the project told IFW the launch could happen "early in 2015".
