Did anyone hear about a wildcat strike this morning at LGG ?
Re: 2018 Liège Airport (LGG/EBLG) latest news
Affirm. Two controllers decided to go on strike but they have been replaced quite quickly so normal ops now.

Amazing indeed!
Excellent! I would think space might soon begin to be limited on the LGG site!
Re: 2018 Liège Airport (LGG/EBLG) latest news
It is saturated... because they can't build fast enough. But there is a lot of space north of the track.
For comparison, brucargo is 130 ha, all full. LGG has 470 ha available, but lets not go faster than the music

Qatar Airways Cargo commences Doha-Macau-Los Angeles-Mexico City-Liege-Doha service
which is weird ... due to the altitude of mexico city, it's usually MEX-LAX-LGG, but let's see

Re: 2018 Liège Airport (LGG/EBLG) latest news
it's more complicated even. It's weird that some news site mention only half of the story, but anyway

And in the second one, ORD is replaced by IAH.

It looks like it's easier to connect Liège to China with a freigter train than to connect Liège to Paris with a freigter TGV !

Cargo trains from China to Europe (and vice versa, of course) are all the vogue; there have been inaugurations to Antwerp and to Gent, too, not so long ago.
But what's this about a cargo HST? Liege-Paris is not a sufficient distance to make this attractive, imho; but a high speed reefer train from Spain (Valencia, or so?) to Paris and perhaps even beyond could be a strong offer, especially for fruits and vegetables.
Excuse me if this is going too far off topic.

That's a good idea in fact they could even use the track's at night when there are free.jan_olieslagers wrote: ↑26 Oct 2018, 17:36 Cargo trains from China to Europe (and vice versa, of course) are all the vogue; there have been inaugurations to Antwerp and to Gent, too, not to long ago.
