Latest news: Hungarian rail freight, as reported by Hungrail, faced rising unit costs (4.1%) and falling revenues (2.6%) in Q1 2026 due to weakening demand and infrastructure constraints, impacting profitability and increasing competition from road transport. Concurrently, HŽ Cargo collaborated with Budamar Logistics, Budamar South, and Luka Rijeka to launch new intermodal Ro-Ro logistics via the Port of Rijeka, enhancing maritime-rail connections for Central and South-Eastern Europe.
