Eurotunnel Freight runs rail freight services through the Channel Tunnel. Lorries are loaded onto the train wagons at one
terminus and unloaded at the terminus on the other side. The train journey lasts 35 minutes. At $ 400 for a one-way
crossing, the price is higher than by ferry. Containers or unaccompanied trailers cannot be carried. Dangerous loads can be
carried but not large, abnormal loads.
However, there are advantages in using the tunnel. First, the journeys are quicker and loading and unloading takes less time.
Train journeys are more frequent than ferry crossings. There are between three and six departures per hour, compared with
one per hour for ferry sailings. Finally, the trains are not affected by the weather, with 94 per cent of trains departing on
time. In winter, fog and high winds can cause delays or cancellations of ferry services. However, trains continue to operate
below the Channel whatever the weather.
