On January 26, a China-Europe Railway Express train loaded with 900 China-made vehicles, departed from Tuanjiecun Station in Southwest China’s Chongqing Municipality to the German city of Duisburg.
It was the fifth intercontinental train following the route this year, marking the successful shipment of the entire first batch of 900 finished vehicles under a key project jointly operated by CTS International Logistics Corporation Limited (CTS International), a rail-related subsidiary of China Logistics Group Co., Ltd (China Logistics), and Yuxinou (Chongqing) Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. (Yuxinou).

The long-term, stable cooperation between CTS International and Yuxinou began in 2021. They committed to providing cross-border trunk line transportation solutions for finished vehicles and KD components for domestic automakers. For imports, they have engaged in the return transportation of bulk cargoes including potash fertilizer, asphalt, and carbon black.
In 2025, CTS International achieved 4,746 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) of exports and 368 TEUs of imports. This January, the total amount of exports and imports reached 1,000 TEUs, securing a good start for the whole year.
Through refined management, CTS International pursues efficiency and cost optimization in every step, from plan design and resource allocation to overseas tracking. Its strong comprehensive logistics network can offer a one-stop solution to meet the customers’ diverse needs.
CTS International has intensified its cooperation with Yuxinou. It has expanded its Yangtze River-sea intermodal transport services and established new warehouses in Europe and Southeast Asia. Its range of services has expanded beyond traditional international freight to encompass cross-border e-commerce logistics and supply chain trade services. These methods have enhanced Chongqing’s capabilities as a logistics hub and provided local manufacturing clusters with integrated international logistics solutions.
