For centuries, the port of Mannheim has been one of the oldest and best-developed railway intersections in Germany. The railway is connected to the Rhine and the Neckar. The RoRo system connects the railway and roads to the inland waterways. Trains can be put together and carriages weighed and parked up in group E in the Rheinau port. The infrastructure consists of 96 km of track and 272 junction plates in track category D4 (axle load = maximum 22.5 t; meter load = maximum 8 t /m). The ports are connected directly with the central station in Mannheim and Rangierbahnhof Mannheim.
The transport identification and calculation system (TrAbSy) records all carriages and automatically establishes a statement of account.
