CORE COMPETENCE
The Europe-wide leasing of railway wagons has been our core business - since 1964. We pioneered the industry by introducing a modular IT solution. With the universal chemicals tank car, we set a new benchmark for equipment and functionality. And we promoted the introduction of derailing detectors, which today are a matter of course. These are just some of the steps that define our lead. Established know-how is one thing. Further development another. The pan-European hiring of railway transportation remains our core business. Today, we provide additional services for our customers, such as the management of complete car fleets.

Customers benefit from our networked approach, the versatility of WASCOSA specialists and the rapid interfacing of new concepts and inhouse developments.
